Work You've Begun

Give me ears to hear Your correction Give me faith to stand my ground And a heart that loves Your compassion When hope doesn't seem to be found Give me eyes to see the aching When no one to help is around Give me hands to hold the hurting To show them they are loved All I want Is to be like the One Who took my cross And who gave His Son When the world tells me I should run Give me love give me strength For the work that You've begun Give me feet that spread the good news Give me truth to free what's bound And a tongue that loves to tell of How Your mercy always abounds Give me boldness to speak salvation To the ever angry crowd Give me kindness to speak in patience To show them Your grace now All I want Is to be like the One Who took my cross And who gave His Son When the world tells me I should run Give me love give me strength For the work that You've begun And I know I won't be perfect But I trust You're making me And I know it won't be flawless But give me love give me grace To be what You want me to be All I want Is to be like the One Who took my cross And who gave His Son When the world tells me I should run Give me love give me strength For the work that You've begun Give me love give me strength For the work that You've begun
