Space For Grace

orchidee



Tune: North Coates

('O my Saviour lifted')

*********

Here to fill a small space

Something of your grace

Grant I Lord, do today

Come show me your way

 

Share something of your love

Of your Spirit, dove

Who resides in hearts blessed

Who have you confessed

 

What thing great or small may

I do, who for pray?

Or what situations

Among all nations?

 

Light of life, we see clear

Your presence e'er near

Help us share you daily

Giving lovingly

 

So when day is ended

You have our hearts read

May at least one thing shown

Through me made you known

    Fine work but is 'thorough' the right word in the last line?

    • orchidee

      Thanks M. Oops - amendment needed!

      • Michael Edwards

        It's that errant 'O' - keeps rolling around all over the place.

            Good one Orchi, but is he there?

            • orchidee

              Thanks Gold. Well yes, always has been, it seems to me. I can tend to be a bit 'blind faith'. I don't seem to question a lot. Not that I feel brain-washed, as one or two people in life have suggested to me.
