May it please You
May it please You
a hymn by Joel Howard, 2015
May it please You to grant us life
O Giver of breath
To the fullness may we understand
Goodness from Your hand
Goodness from Your hand
May Your light shine upon our path
Putting darkness to flight
Lead us on with Your shepherd's staff
And by Your command
And by Your command
May our mourning be turned to joy
As we run hard the race
May we think of those who've gone before
And those who will come
And those who will come
May we pardon our enemies
Just as You've forgiven us
May we shine with a love so bright
Calling sinners home
Calling sinners home
May we look to our coming King
And never be ashamed
For from heaven He will bring us to
Ever reign with Him
Ever reign with Him
