Humble Heart

Tune: St Cuthbert

(\'Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed\')

*********

To follow Christ\'s humility

Lord, this my prayer it be

Forgive where pride and arrogance

In me you sense

 

Help me not judge, but leave to you

For your judgement be true

But human wisdom it may fail

And not prevail

 

With grace we pray our  attitude

Be humble, not harsh, rude

But seeking to show of our Lord

The living Word

 

So shall His image from us shine

He human and divine

His Spirit dwelling in our hearts

Fills us, all parts

 

And thus to serve our fellow man

Give us strength, so we can

In serving man, so do we do

Serve you anew

 

Rewards you give to humble, meek

Those who your face do seek

Yet may we you e\'er glorify

And know you nigh
