Soul Seeking

Tune: Southwell

('Lord Jesus, think on me')

Psalm 73 v.25-28

********

In heaven whom have I

But you, Lord, yet you nigh

To me be, in hearts reside

By your Spirit abide

 

Upon earth there is none

That I desire, but one

It be you, Lord God, holy, strong

Support us all life long

 

My flesh and my heart fail

But you, Lord, still prevail

You the strength of my heart e'er be

My part eternally

 

Good is it sure for me

To draw near to God, see

In Him I have put my trust, so

I all His works may show
