Dear Lord And Father Of Mankind 歌詞

Dear Lord and Father of mankind Forgive our foolish ways Reclothe us in our rightful mind In purer lives Thy service find In deeper reverence, praise In simple trust like theirs who heard Beside the Syrian sea The gracious calling of the Lord Let us, like them, without a word Rise up and follow Thee O Sabbath rest by Galilee O calm of hills above Where Jesus knelt to share with Thee The silence of eternity Interpreted by love! With that deep hush subduing all Our words and works that drown The tender whisper of Thy call As noiseless let Thy blessing fall As fell Thy manna down Drop Thy still dews of quietness Till all our strivings cease Take from our souls the strain and stress And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of Thy peace Breathe through the heats of our desire Thy coolness and Thy balm Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire O still, small voice of calm
