YouTube video: Seek Ye The Lord, For Now He Is Near

See text below:

Seek ye the Lord, as now He is near.
Let doubt and worry flee away. Let faith subdue all fear.
Raise thy voice on high. He will be nearby,
Hearing ev’ry heartfelt prayer and drying ev’ry tear.

Know ye the Lord, as now ye are known.
His love can fill each lonely space, His gaze can pierce all stone.
In thy sacred place, seek to know His grace.
Willingly He gives to thee, then kneel before His throne.

Hear ye the Lord, as He hears thy prayer.


Be constant to His guiding light in faith that He is there.
Let Him lead Thee on, 'til all fear is gone.
Joyfully receive His voice then turn again to share.

Serve ye the Lord, as He served us all.
He suffered in Gethsemane to save us from the Fall.
Think upon His gift, reaching out to lift.
Hearken to each plaintive plea, and answer ev’ry call.

Love ye the Lord, and love all mankind.
Find joy attending to the Word from ev’ry source you find.
He will light thy way, blessing night and day.
Serve His children with thy strength, with all thy heart and mind.
