Give me love when love has left
When of all feeling I’m bereft
Give me joy when night is long
When trials would silence every song
Give me peace when chaos reigns
When storms increase and quiet wanes
Give me hope when hope is lost
When fears abound and thoughts are tossed
Give me faith when I can’t see
When mountains loom in front of me
Give me goodness when I’m spent
When I can’t give for all is lent
Give me patience when I’m through
When I would turn from trusting You
Give me Jesus when I’m done
For when I’m empty, You will come.
