Let us gather beneath your arms, safe & certain, led by the servant king.
We will follow close at your feet eagerly receiving your words & to them cling.
Humbly we rest beneath your word. Lead us where it may, we’re devoted to obey. Hold to us when we away, but lead us to the truth—bring us closer to you, God.
Draw your children & turn our ears, that your guidance might satisfy our inward thirst.
Holy Spirit be our filter, his word keep pure, & fill us ’til we overflow.
Humbly we rest beneath your word. Lead us where it may, we’re devoted to obey. Hold to us when we away, but lead us to the truth—bring us closer to you, God.
If you’re hungry, come to him. He’ll give you the bread of life.
If you’re thirsty, come to him. His blood will satisfy.
With your burdens, come to him. I promise his is light.
If you’re willing, run to him. The truth will set you free.
