The Children Sing (1951), no. 32
Lord, We Come Before Thee Now

1. Lord, we come before thee now, At thy feet we humbly bow; Do not thou our suit disdain; Shall we seek thee, Lord, in vain?

2. In thine own appointed way, Now we seek thee; here we stay; Lord, from hence we would not go, Till a blessing thou bestow.

3. Send some message from thy word, That may joy and peace afford; Comfort those who seep and mourn, Let “the time of love” return.

4. Grant we all may seek and find Thee, our gracious God, and kind; Heal the sick, the captive free, Let us all rejoice in thee.
