Light Of Life

orchidee



Tune: Penlan

('In heavenly love abiding')

***********

Leave, leave us not, abide still

With us, show us your will

Looking to you we shall live

Salvation you us give

You the vine, we the branches

Without you profitless

Shall be human endeavours

But you strengthen us, bless

 

Your light to keep, to guide us

Your words true, we confess

And here resides in hearts pure

Your Spirit evermore

Guard us through all life's journey

Help us your paths to see

Give wisdom, grace, all we need

Your sheep you us do feed

 

Your love still us to inspire

And flame of holy fire

Producing acts of faith here

May your glory appear

In sharing gospel message

Your word, its every page

Written, the hope eternal

For all who on you call

            Blind faith is poison, for it has and is the cause of many lives, so let it be enlightenment that is received.

              Thanks Suresh. I may mean 'blind faith' in that I may not question many things very much.
