REQUEST

My Lord, my God my Saviour and my King;

To thee a humble gift of praise I bring,

My heart cannot contain this love You give,

This knowing that in me, You choose to live.

 

Lord let this light within shine through,

That all my deeds and words would speak of You,

That those who see a joy in me might know,

It is Your Spirit’s fruit which I do show.

 

Lord may my spirit be in tune with Thine,

May listening ear and willing heart be mine,

And in this world where many roam alone,

May in this life Your Spirit’s love be shown.

 

Grant me, oh Lord, a willing heart,

On each new journey let me start

With eyes fixed only on Your face,

And keep them there throughout the race.

 

That when my life on earth is done,

I’ll stand before You with Your Son,

And through His blood, He’ll speak for me,

And bring me spotless unto Thee.
