Give Us Ears To Hear

1        Give us ears to hear - the words your Spirit says to us

          Give us eyes to see His work among us

          Minds to understand - your perfect purposes for us

          Lips to praise your name, for all that you have done.

 

2        Give us hearts of love - for everyone you bring our way

          Give us spirits of compassion for them

          Arms to open wide - to reach out and to welcome in

          Words to share the joy - that we have found in you.

 

Ch     We will be your soldiers and your servants in your world

          Humble and obedient, your body here on earth

          Give us faith, we pray, to fight for what is good

          And grant us grace, each day, to serve you as we should

 

3       Give us courage for - the times of trial that we must face

         Give us strength to stand and not be shaken

         Passion for your word - declaring good news in our land

         Voices speaking out, for justice and for truth.

 

        (repeat chorus)
