I desire to do your will, my God.
(Psalm 40:8; NIV).
Why am I here, Lord?
What is my task?
How can I do your will?
By turning from sin,
And trusting my Son;
Praying, alone, every day.
Why am I here, Lord?
What is my task?
How can I do your will?
By taking your cross,
And following Christ;
Uniting with us, as one.
Why am I here, Lord?
What is my task?
How can I do your will?
By seeking my face,
And learning to love;
Forgiving both friend and foe.
Why am I here, Lord?
What is my task?
How can I do your will?
By bearing what comes,
And growing in faith;
Accepting both good and ill.
💜
The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away;
blessed be the name of the Lord.
(Job 1:21; NKJV).
Amen
