Tune:  Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Heart..

Thank you, o Lord, for all Your care
and for Your fellowship in prayer,
watered my soul is by Your word,
where by Your Spirit Your voice is heard.

Even when I don´t understand
why I was sent to this dry land,
Christ is my never failing fount
so for refreshments on Him I count!

He makes my soul a garden too,
on it He does let fall His dew,
 as my Refresher He´ll remain
when He pours forth Heaven´s showers of rain!

Be as His channel satisfied,
thus He your soul will keep from pride,
as you in grace and truth will grow,
you as His servant He will keep low!

In all your weakness still be bold,
Christ is your Rock and firm stronghold,
witness what He for you has done,
when full salvation for all He won!
