Seeking Sincerely

orchidee



Tune: Darwall's 148th

('Ye holy angels bright')

********

O Lord, come me revive

Where I do stress and strive

Of things of self and greed

Where you I do not heed

In your will peace shall true be found

Contented hearts in praise resound

 

If some way new to go

Where your Spirit does show

Grant courage, strength, so I

Your way go, not deny

What for me be, my steps direct

You leave us not, we your elect

 

Refresh where stale or dry

Hear my call and my cry

Through things common each day

Still lead us on we pray

As salt and light we witness here

To all that your presence is near

 

Always some plan, purpose

Of good you show to us

And growing in your Son

His image, till life done

By grace we produce fruit for you

To be unto your glory true
