Tune: St Fulbert
('Ye choirs of new Jerusalem')
**********
Help us, O Lord, to know your way
Your will for every day
Forgive where we [act] too early, [or too] late
Or [where we] forget, [or get] distressed state
Give us wisdom, your promise be
That you will give freely
What things we need to follow you
And what we say and do
The help of your Spirit, He sent
To us, this your intent
To remind us of all your Son
Has said, and what [He] has done
He shall teach us all that we need
Shall spiritually feed
Us, so sustained, your life-giving
Sprit in us living

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. format. As with this poem - sometimes not always based on Bible verses exactly. Some words added in verse 1 by way of explanation. Hope it does not disrupt the flow of the poem too much.
