AN EASTER PRAYER, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Oh let me know
Last Line: Thy love and faithfulness through all my days.
Subject(s): Easter; Holidays; Prayer; The Resurrection


OH, let me know
The power of Thy resurrection;
Oh, let me show
Thy risen life in calm and clear reflection:
Oh, let me soar
Where Thou, my Saviour Christ, art gone before;
In mind and heart
Let me dwell always, only, where Thou art.

Oh, let me give
Out of the gifts Thou freely givest;
Oh, let me live
With life abundantly because Thou livest;
Oh, make me shine
In darkest places, for Thy light is mine;
Oh, let me be
A faithful witness for Thy truth and Thee.

Oh, let me show
The strong reality of gospel story;
Oh, let me go
From strength to strength, from glory unto glory;
Oh, let me sing
For very joy, because Thou art my King;
Oh, let me praise
Thy love and faithfulness through all my days.
