The Lord has been revealed in us,
|
|---|
|
| 1. | The Lord has been revealed in us, |
| | The kingdom-seed so glorious; |
| | He's planted deeper than our heart, |
| | And from us He will ne'er depart. |
| | This seed is never satisfied |
| | Just in our spirits to abide; |
| | He want to grow and spread today |
| | To live in us in every way. |
| 2. | We're like a glove, an empty man, |
| | So meaningless without a hand; |
| | Lord, saturate each inward part |
| | And form Yourself in all our heart. |
| | The Lord must spread into our mind, |
| | Our natural thoughts and concepts bind; |
| | Imaginations, dreams be gone, |
| | The kingdom-seed in us is sown! |
| 3. | In our emotions He must grow; |
| | Raw, fragile feelings overthrow; |
| | Our love, our hatred, must be His- |
| | Lord, we agree with You for this. |
| | Another part the Lord must fill- |
| | Our hard, unbending, stubborn will; |
| | Lord, our resistance quickly break, |
| | Subdue us for Thy kingdom's sake. |
| 4. | Our conscience too the Lord must clear, |
| | That we may walk in godly fear; |
| | Our conscience must be keen today, |
| | Else we cannot the Lord obey. |
| | 'Tis by His growing, spreading thus, |
| | The Lord will have His home in us; |
| | A place on earth where He is Lord, |
| | Full rights to Him we will afford. |
