In Your Care Oh Lord

 

I am Your creation oh loving God

To You I owe my very being

For You I live my earthly time

With You I have all worth seeing

 

From You I receive everything

To return to You one final time

 

You are my life’s true meaning

Lead me forth and guide me

On the path that You have planned

And You always at my side will be

 

Blind though sometimes I am

Help me in my blindness to see

 

You sent us Your only Son

God of endless love and compassion

To become as one of us, Your fully Divine Son

In our lowly form your likeness fashioned

 

To bring us again the precious gift of life

So that with You we’ll be united in Your time

 

Help me speak of You dear Lord with grace

That others may hear and see You true

As I hear Your voice and See Your face

I strive to follow your Word and do what you do

 

In Your care I place my life

Bring me to where You want me to

 

For I am in Your Body and You in me

As I join in precious communion with You

I’ll spread Your word, the great good news

And give You all honor, rightly due

 

I will spread the seeds of faith each day

As You clearly taught me how to do

And water them with love and prayer

That we might branch out straight and true
