Lord, give back Your joy,
to those stumbling . . .
let them feel Your love
once again humbling.
Reignite in them the hope,
when they first meet You
let again Your saving light
in their life’s break through.
Let their repentant heart,
once again feel Your calm
let the joy of being saved
be again their soothing balm.
Restore in them the trust,
as when You they first accepted
renew Your mercy and grace
so again You’ll be connected.
Lord, let the contrite take back,
the joy of their salvation . . .
return unto them their state
of everlasting elation!
~~~~~
“Restore unto me the joy
of thy salvation; and uphold
me with thy free spirit.”
