Tune: Herongate
(\'It is a thing most wonderful\')
Hosea 6 v.4
For St Philip & St James Day - May 1.
**********
Is our love like a morning mist
Which lasts a while, yet not persist?
Love for our Lord, who His life gave
In His love, sinners for to save
Philip and James, apostles they
Followed Christ daily in His way
He Himself the way, the world\'s Light
Giving to us spiritual sight
Will we stay with Him, He our Friend
Who loved and cared until the end
Then died and rose again, loves still
Ever doing His Father\'s will
They who unto the end endure
Shall be saved, this be true for sure
Lord, inspire us afresh that we
Follow, e\'en if small our spark be
