We Beseech Thee

[NICK BLAEMIRE]
Father, hear thy children's call
Humbly at thy feet we fall
Prodigals confessing all
We beseech thee, hear us!
We thy call have disobeyed
Into paths of sin have strayed
And repentance have delayed
We beseech thee, hear us!
Come sing about
Love!
That calls us first to be
Come sing about
Love!
That made the stone and tree
Come sing about Love!
That draws us lovingly

[NICK BLAEMIRE AND Chorus]
We beseech thee, hear us!

We come come to thee for cure

[Chorus]
Guilty!

[ALL]
We beseech thee, hear us!

Come sing about Love!

That draws us lovingly
We beseech thee, hear us!

[Chorus]
By the gracious saving call
Spoken tenderly to all
Who have shared man's guilt and fall
We beseech thee, hear us!
By the love that longs to bless
Pitying our sore distress
Leading us to holiness
Hear us!

Grant us all from earth to rise
And to strain with eager eyes
Towards the promised Heavenly prize
We beseech thee, hear us!
Come sing about Love!

[Chorus]
Love!

[NICK BLAEMIRE]
That calls us first to be
Come sing about Love!

Come sing about Love!

Love! Love! Love! Love! Love!
We beseech thee, hear us!
