We Beseech Thee

Father, hear thy children's call
Humbly at thy feet we fall
Prodigals confessing all
We beseech thee, hear us!
We thy call have disobeyed
Into paths of sin have strayed
And repentence have delayed

We beseech thee, hear us!
Come sing about
Love!
That cause us first to be
Come sing about
Love!
That made the stone and tree
Come sing about Love!
That draws us lovingly

We beseech thee, hear us!

Sick!

We come to thee for cure

Guilty!

We seek thy mercy sure

Evil!

We long to be made pure

We beseech thee, hear us!

Blind!

We pray that we may see

Bound!

We pray to be made free

Stained!

We pray for sanctity

We beseech thee, hear us!

Come sing about
Love!

Love!

That cause us first to be
Come sing about Love!

Love!

That made the stone and tree
Come sing about Love!

Love! Love! Love!
That draws us lovingly

We beseech thee, hear us!
By the gracious saving call
Spoken tenderly to all
Who have shared man's guilt and fall
We beseech thee, hear us!
By the love that longs to bless
Pitying our sore distress
Leading us to holiness
We beseech thee, hear us!
Grant us all from earth to rise
And to strain with eager eyes
Towards the promised Heavenly prize
We beseech thee, hear us!
Come sing about Love!
Love!
That cause us first to be
Come sing about Love!
Love!
That made the stone and tree
Come sing about Love!
Love! Love! Love! Love!
That draws us lovingly
We beseech thee, hear us!
