From the recording Love Me to Life
This song is from the album of the same title and and summarizes the theme of the album: belief, hope, and love. I pray those words but I feel that's there's something more that may be missing. Perhaps it's surrender, sacrifice, and self-denial - letting go for the good of one another.
Lyrics
Love Me to Life
Albert Frank Tucci
When my spirit’s faint within me and I’ve lost hope in trial,
I breathe Your love; you fill my soul with life and tender mercy.
In times of shaken confidence and faith is ever-bending,
I fix my gaze on you, O Lord for grace and understanding.
Guide me in Your truth and free me from distress
Save me from my useless fears
and place me in Your loving presence.
When life’s burdens test my resolve and peace of heart is fading,
Your words give hope, your face shines love, I’m rescued in your loving kindness.
Interlude
Hear my solemn call make, Your spirit known,
Do not hide Your face from me
but place me in Your loving presence
Now, I’m in Your loving arms your searching glance is on me;
I praise you for my suffering in weakness I am stronger with you.
When I place my trust in You I know that You will love me to life.
