Samuel Sebastian Wesley - Reliance - ноты, текст песни (слова)

1. 
 
 
 
Awake, O Lord, as in the time of old! 
Come, Holy Spirit, in Thy power and might; 
For lack of Thee our hearts are strangely cold, 
Our minds but blindly groping towards the light. 
2. 
 
 
 
Doubts are abroad: make Thou these doubts to cease! 
Fears are within: set Thou these fears at rest! 
Strife is among us: melt that strife to peace! 
Change marches onward: may all change blest! 
3. 
 
 
 
Make us to be what we profess to be; 
Let prayer be prayer, and praise be heartfelt praise; 
From unreality, O set us free, 
And let our words be echoed by our ways. 
4. 
 
 
 
Turn us, good Lord, and so shall we be turned: 
Let every passion grieving Thee be stilled: 
Then shall our race be won, our guerdon earned, 
Our Master looked on, and our joy fulfilled. 
Lyrics: Hen­ry Twells, Hymns and Other Stray Vers­es, 1901.
