Lyrics We Beseech Thee - Jeffrey Mylett

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 repentance have delayed,
We beseech Thee, hear us!

Come sing about love!
That made 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 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 made us first to be!
Come sing about love!
(Love!)
That made the stone and tree,

Come sing about 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!
That made 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!
