come, lord jesus

O life of God
around, within, among us
come to our awareness
move us to repentance
make straight the paths
that lead us out of ourselves
to You
and back again.

O life of God
around, within, among us
come, Lord Jesus
with fire and life
our roots drinking deeply
from a world that knows
you not, destroy
but in your mercy
plant us again
by living streams
that we might bear fruit.

O life of God
around, within, among us
come, Lord Jesus.
