Suggested Tune CONFIDENCE (LM)

   •  "We played the flute, you did not dance.
We sang a dirge, you did not mourn."
So hard to please, so weak our knees,
so blind to signs of Saviour born.

•  How weak in soul your servants, Lord,
we fight these wars that rage within;
the good we long to do we don't,
but find ourselves so much in sin.

•  Oh, rescue us, Lord, rescue us!
we cannot win this war alone.
The faces of our enemies
are in the end our very own!

•  He rescues us, He rescues us,
Thanks be to God through Christ our Lord!
His Spirit is our comforter,
His word of truth will be our sword.
