Humbled Heart
Click on button to play music.
Have mercy, Lord, when my heart suffers from one who hates.
I will Praise Thee with all of my heart and meet Thee at the gates
Of a Kingdom of pure and abiding love, where I will rejoice and give all love
To the Father, through the Son; who is in our hearts and in Heaven above.
He will ever hearken to our call, turn back our enemies from our life,
And let not us be weary; going all alone through this world of strife.
Let our hearts be humbled in Thy sight. Let us be white as the snow,
That wherever here on earth you would have us do, we would so go.
Consider those who hate us and let not us stumble regarding Thy will.
But, let us be joyfully in Thy word, that our hearts Thou may fill.
Let not us put asunder the sweet words of Thine own true giving,
But to tuck away into our hearts, as the true token for living.
Bring back the days of yore, I would but can not ask of Thee, today.
For, I know it dawns closer to the sweet time when you will take us away
Into Thine own Kingdom, filled with precious things of joy and love;
Like the true waters of life, fills our being from up there with Thee, above.
Help us to lean not to our own understanding, but to reckon of the word of Thee,
That all may be well with our soul as, in its time, we’ll come into Eternity,
With the Trinity Three; with humbled and contrite heart to Thy Holy Son,
Knowing inside our hearts, this sweet Savior in the true and only one.
