Let Me Find Thee
Seeking Redemption: Let Me Find Thee in Grief and Grace
Lyrics
Behold me here, in grief draw near
Expressing sorrow and inviting attention
Pleading at Thy throne, oh King
Pleading with humility before God
To Thee each tear, each trembling fear
Presenting every tear and fear to God
Jesus, Son of Man, I bring
Addressing Jesus as the Son of Man
Let me find Thee, let me find Thee
Repetition emphasizing the desire to find God
Let me find Thee, Lord of mercy, King of grace
Desiring to find God, acknowledging His mercy and grace
Look down in love, and from above
Requesting God's loving gaze and satisfaction through His Spirit
With Thy Spirit satisfy
Seeking divine satisfaction from above
Thou hast sought me, Thou hast bought me
Acknowledging God's pursuit and ownership
And thy purchase Lord am I
Affirming commitment to God's ownership
Let me find Thee, let me find Thee
Reiteration of the desire to find God
Let me find Thee, here on earth and then on high
Expressing the desire to find God on earth and in the afterlife
Hear the broken, scarcely spoken
Listening to the unspoken brokenness
Longings of my heart to Thee
Expressing deep longings of the heart to God
All the crying, all the sighing
Acknowledging all cries and sighs to be accepted by God
Of Thy child accepted be
Yearning for acceptance as God's child
Let me find Thee, let me find Thee
Repetition of the plea to find God
Let me find Thee, wounded healer, suffering Lord
Desiring to find God as a wounded healer and suffering Lord
Let me find Thee, let me find Thee
Repetition emphasizing the continued desire to find God
Let me find Thee, wounded healer, suffering Lord
Reaffirming the desire to find God as a wounded healer and suffering Lord
