1. Father,
May I praise your name,
Serving in all I do;
Then I will see your face, at last,
For I belong to you.
2. Jesus,
May I face each day
Bearing my cross anew;
Then I will share your joy, at last,
For I am part of you.
3. Spirit,
May I hear your voice
Teaching me all that’s true;
Then we will reunite, at last,
For I am one with you.
❤️
