Lord Jesus Once You Spoke to Me

Verse 1:
Lord Jesus, once You spoke to men
Upon the mountain and the plain,
O help us listen now as then
And wonder at Your words again.

Verse 2:
We all have secret fears to face,
Our minds and motives to amend.
We seek Your truth, we need Your grace,
Our living Lord and present friend.

Verse 3:
The gospel speaks; and we receive
Your light, Your love, Your own command.
O help us live what we believe,
In daily word of heart and hand.
