Frutiful Following

Fits tune: Breslau

(One tune to \'Take up your cross, the Saviour said\')

********

Though I may seek an easy way

Come to my heart Lord, every day

Help me to turn, to follow you

Me strengthen, empower, renew

 

O here distracted and confused

Yet with your grace, blessings endued

Upon me, so cause me up rise

To follow truth, not stay with lies

 

For we accepted in you are

Heaven to us you do not bar

But forgiven now through your Son

He the redemption work has done

 

No other hope to rest upon

His grace avails, the only one

By whom mankind to God can come

All people, all, the total sum

 

Trusting all to your Spirit sure

A reality evermore

Us not unmoved, we play our part

Continue, or some new thing start

 

Some vision, motivation now

Be inspired, and in worship bow

Some fruit to share, some gift to give

From Christ, for He does ever live

 

Look Lord upon me, look and see

That I not frozen, chilly be

But choose your narrow way each day

Your love, comfort, with me alway
