Daily Deeds

Tune: Doncaster

('Put thou thy trust in God')

*******

Help us, Lord, know your will

Our troubled hearts, minds still

Enough to know that we serve you

Our gracious God and true

 

Help us, Lord, strength to take

From you, serve for your sake

Not overdo nor pressurise

Ourselves, but with grace rise

 

To balance out the plans

Each woman, child, and man

The good works you have prepared sure

From your wise treasure-store

 

Not strain to do it all

But what be in your call

To us, each one to share the load

Along life's daily road

 

If busy or if calm

If safe, or danger' harm

Guide us to go on, each step take

And us more Christ-like make

 

Yet deeds they do follow

Salvation, this we know

For we cannot merit it, earn

But unto you we turn

 

Salvation in your Son

Open to every one

Help us to know you, Life, Truth, Way

You our Friend night and day

        Wait what?! That's strange I replied with, "Orchi this is beautiful! Continue writing those peppy hymns!" Well, hope you'll see it now! 😅🤪
