For this your way of thinking must be fresh and clear.
Oh, get ready, God to meet;
The Spirit will sanctify all who obey;
This is our Father’s great love toward us.
Years I spent in sorrow ’round the cross,
Of His kindness.
Now we will proclaim to all nations ’round us:
Oh, set my heart on fire.
Hungry, thirsty, mocked, reviled.
Now we turn our heart back—how it sings!
His dear appearing.
Jesus, the kingdom, O how glorious!
If His dying thy debt has not paid?
In the years that you are giv’n.
Growing in life with those who call on the Lord.
To newness born within.
And spoke the Word with boldness,
We would come and turn to You
I need a soft heart,
Has ever higher been than these.

Repent

Jesus came proclaiming and He says this to you:
Oh, prepare—repent, believing,
Ye shall be born again!
In His loving arms we were meant;
Then at last the river I did cross,
end
Behold, He comes: Christ our risen Lord!
Grant my heart for You to burn.
Your shed blood was all worthwhile.
Jesus, Lord, You’re our first love.
Save me from the present age.
All that we do, think, or feel, or have planned
But the blood, that redeemeth the soul;
To enjoy the peace of heav’n.
Amen! Lord renew us.
Precious Lord I now give in;
God needs the overcomers,
And would give ourselves to be
To transform each part,
This is the Kingdom’s first demand;
