Pondering Perusal

orchidee



Tune: Pastor Pastorum

('Faithful Shepherd, feed me')

********

Here I set my focus

Lord,  I you confess

All distractions depart

Lord, you know each heart

 

Guide me by your Spirit

As you do see fit

Help me to attune to

You in me anew

 

Having precious treasure

In human lives sure

We be as pots of clay

Your glories [we] display

 

Leaving all our cares, fears

With you in our prayers

So your peace comforting

Us here in each thing

 

Trusting you will provide

Fro me, I confide

In you, and you reveal

Your will to each still

 

Forgive where I doubt love

Your Spirit, the dove

Help me not Him quencn, grieve

But His love receive

            I'd like to think a little finer
            I'll be a pot of fine bone china?
            Excellent Orchi
