(\'O thou that camest from above\')
Luke 12 v.22-34
**********
Lord, help us seek your kingdom first
That it be our hunger and thirst
Not worrying o\'er food, drink, clothes
Though you know we have need of those
Help us consider birds, they fly
Not sow or reap, but you their stay
Lord God you feed them all daily
And so it to your children be
Help us consider lilies fair
We can all in their beauties share
Lord God you clothe them here today
Then tomorrow they go their way
Will you not much more us provide?
We can in you trust and provide
You tend unto your creation
And too folk of every nation
Worry and anxious care be gone
Your kingdom here through Christ your Son
You will give us, your flock little
Help us to hear your loving call
Not treasure on earth, vanity
For where our treasure is, shall be
Our hearts also, so may we meek
Your true riches in heaven seek
