Lyrics:

                                                                        

Hear my prayer Lord Jesus, I abide in you.

I know from the Bible that you love me, too.

Guide my footsteps daily, bring me closer to

all that is eternal, bring me home.

 

When you joined your father, your disciples mourned.

Though you left instructions, and they’d been forewarned.

Others didn’t know you, or they weren’t convinced.

Still the path to Heaven you’d by then evinced.

 

     Some may be ungrateful for your grace…for your grace.

     Others, tough decisions cannot face…cannot face.

     But to join you gladly in that place…in that place.

     Paul has shown us how to run the race…run the race.

 

Hear my prayer, Lord Jesus. I abide in you.

Time on earth invested had allowed you to

demonstrate the power that belief in you

guarantees our future, bring me home…bring me home.

 

Hear my prayer, Lord Jesus. Keep me free from sin.

Help me guard my actions. Don’t let Satan in.

Thoughts that may be evil won’t be welcomed when

I ask for forgiveness, and invite you in.

 

     Some may be unwilling to embrace…to embrace…

     what you offer in this time and place…time and place.

     Their denial won’t remove your grace…your grace…

     if their hearts should choose to seek your face…seek your face.

 

Hear my prayer, Lord Jesus, I abide in you.

I know from your teaching that you love me, too.

Help me emulate you, and my sins subdue.

Thank you for your patience…bring me home…bring me home.

 

Hear my prayer, Lord Jesus, I abide in you.

Grant me wisdom daily, make my troubles few.

When my body fails me, help my thoughts cling to

Time of joy eternal that I’ll spend with you.

 

Time of joy eternal..with you…with you…
