lift my heart to love and praise;
guide and keep, sustain and bless me,
all my days.
2 Well of life, for ever flowing,
make my barren soul and bare
like a watered garden growing,
fresh and fair.
3 May the Tree of life in splendour
from its leafy boughs impart
grace divine and healing tender,
strength of heart.
4 Path of life before me shining,
let me come when earth is past,
sorrow, self and sin resigning,
home at last. Scripture: Genesis 2:9 Used With Tune: CHRIST THE WAY OF LIFE
Christ the Way of life possess me
