Discourse of Diligence

Tune: Capetown

(\'Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost\')

*********

Search my heart this day I pray

Lord, and see if any way

Displeasing to you, forgive

And so I shall live

 

Preparing for your return

Help us live and love and learn

Ever near the day draws near

When you shall appear

 

Bringing reign of justice true

By your grace make all anew

Peace and mildness, harmony

We shall fully see

 

Light our way, light of the world

Your will to us be unfurled

You seeking us, we seeking you

That will for to do

 

Help unto the penitent

You have given, you have sent

Christ your Son us to redeem

Dayspring\'s saving beam

 

Meditate a while heart, still

Mind from troubled thoughts and ill

Peace pervade, find your rest full

In the Lord of all

 

\'Til it seen that you sure reign

End of mourning, weeping, pain

Death no more, earth\'s vale of tears

Final[ly] disappears
