One soft thing

Hear me, please
When I cry
Out in the night

Of light, please
Bring me home
Darkness supplant

Tears bring me
Closer to thee
Closer to Thee

We three, me
And thee, and
Godhead ever

Don't be far
Don't be far
Never farther

Mine the pain
yours the fear
Ours to bear it

In my heart
ever art
Thou appearing

"Never alone"
You once said
now I know it

Come with me
we three, two
hearts in trouble

So in tears
Sown in tears
Give us tomorrow

Light the dawn
Find us home
With Thee ever

Let it be
Jesus, Oh
I believe it

Showered rain
Not in vain
All my sighing

In the night
seeking Thee -
Consolation

In his heart
ever art
Thou Consoling

Take my prayers
Take my heart
Take my weeping

Take my love
Take my pain
Take my dying

Take my cares
Take my fears
Take them with thee

Take my hopes
Take my prayers
Take my singing

Take my tears
Take my sighs
Up to heaven

Shower love!
Shower help!
Show Thy mercy!

On his heart.
On my heart.
We adore Thee

Make me soft
Make me kind
Understanding

Make me wise
Make my eyes
Only for you

Give me wings
A turn to sing
Please console him

Past my reach
Send my heart
A little farther

All to give
All to love
All I have now

Open wide
come inside
One Soft Thing Now

Is thine own
Is thine own
and ever shall be

In the night
I send you light,
Understanding

Please see me
Take comfort please
You aren't forsaken.
