Lord, life becomes more simple
When all I seek is You,
When walking in Your Spirit
Is all that I pursue,
When knowing You are with me
Is all the light I need,
When all my heart is hungry
For You to shape and lead.
Lord, life is filled with beauty
When I am filled with You,
When You, so kind and patient,
Have made me caring, too.
When I am free to love You
And look to You alone,
Then life has found its sunlight,
And hope has found its home.
Lord Jesus, Sun of Heaven,
Its temple and its light,
Life's goal and its beginning,
Love's length and depth and height;
Lord, teach my heart to listen
And rest in simple truth,
To know life's sweetest pleasure:
To know and worship You.
