Living Light

orchidee



Tune: Quebec

('Jesu, thou joy of loving hearts')

Psalm 36 v.9-12

********

For with you, Lord, is the fountain

Of light, we shall see clearly then

For in your light we see true light

What you pleased to show to our sight

 

O continue your loving kindness

Unto them that know you, them bless

And continue your righteousness

To those upright in heart no less

 

Let not pride come against me, lest

Enemies oppress, cause me fret

Let not the wicked drive away

Me, I hold, trust to you today

 

For their state it a poor lot be

They are cast down and light not see

And shall be fallen, but good, right

Shall walk, live daily in God's sight

    A great message. A prayer that if we put ourselves in the place of God, we would do well to listen to.
