God is worthy of all our love Archives - Page 5 of 6

Seek But the Lord

Seek but the Lord
Not for what He can do
But simply enjoy Him
Alone, He and you.

Satan came before God
In heaven to accuse
Not to worship, nor praise
But Job, to misuse.

So compassionate, loving
So caring, keeps seeking
Speaks into men’s hearts
So, surrender… stop fleeing.

Does God have a purpose
In suffering and pain
Sorrow and sickness
Can He turn to gain?

As His sacrifice, living
Must be holy, and pure
For we dare not present
If defiled, and impure.

God allows what He hates
To achieve what He loves
He permits man to sink
That men seek Him above.

Have you learnt to give thanks
Though adversities grow
Can you trust, the Lord God
When no answers show?

How great is our God
Our triumphant King
Let all heaven shout
His praises loud sing.

For what are you grasping
And groping in life
Is it riches and comfort
Success, without strife?

So be not downcast
Our heavenly Father above
Ever faithfully outpours
His unchanging love.
