Lord see me: age 20

by Salie Davis


Lord see me. I am all alone.
Lord hear me in agony moan.
Lord touch me to the bone.
Lord know me as your own.
and Lord save me and bring me home.

Everything I have Lord you have given me,
From feet that walk, to eyes that see,
A voice to talk, and a soul that is free
and everything I have Lord I give back to thee
For you have sent your living word to save me!

And my voice I shall raise to sing of your might,
all of my days and into the night.
Your Son I shall praise and for his word fight,

Lord help me walk in his ways
and live by what is right
For the Lord, Jesus saves
this world by his light.


And Lord see me, I am looking for you.
Lord hear me, I am listening to.
Lord touch me I am reaching for you.
Lord know me that I might know you
and Lord save me as only you can do.

Lord above hear my plea.
help those that I love see you in me.
For only you can set them free
to live in your love for eternity.
Lord please save my family.

For they’ve done as they should
and they know your name.
Their deeds run good
but Lord it isn’t the same.
there is only one
to remove all shame
Let his kingdom come
that they may serve in his reign.
It takes the blood of your Son
to remove all blame.

and Lord see them. there all alone.
Lord hear them in agony moan.
Lord touch them to the bone.
Lord know them as your own.
and Lord save them and bring them home.

Dear Lord here on earth the majority,
wicked and wild are bound to be.
and since my birth Lord, they have hurt me.
But a frightened child is all I see.
Lord, please save my enemies.

For they do not know what they do.
Lord help me to show them the love of you.
That they may grow to see you as I do.
Let your spirit flow Lord make them new.
Here below let your Son shine through.

And Lord see them, their looking for you.
Lord hear them, they’re listening too.
Lord touch them their reaching for you.
Lord know them that they might know you
and Lord save them as only you can do.

And Lord see us. we’re all alone.
Lord hear us in agony moan.
Lord touch us to the bone.
Lord know us as your own.
and Lord save us and bring us home.
