Jesus, show us Your grace!
O Lord, let Your mercy rest upon us,
Your humble servants who come before You
With hope and longing.
Have compassion on us, our Lord!
1
It seems that the love
Once so clearly seen among Your people
In the early days
Is no longer as evident as it once was.
2
Even now, we earnestly long
For the days when Your children
Came together as one
And rejoiced in fellowship.
3
None of the humble and needy
Who draw near to You
Will ever leave weary or empty,
Because of the abundance of Your grace.
4
O Lord, by Your grace,
Set our cold hearts ablaze
And fill them completely
With the fire of Your love.
5
Increase love among us
And remove hatred from our hearts.
Awaken within us a deep thirst
To hear and obey Your words.
6
Grant us Your great blessing
So that we may live faithfully and uprightly,
Waiting and watching
For Your coming.
Praise be to You! Praise be to You!
