Lord, if your presence
Lord, if your presence does not go with us,
Please do not send us up from here.
How will anyone know we are your people
Unless you go before us?
Lord if your favour does not rest on us
We dare not move beyond this place.
How will anyone know we go in your name
Unless your blessing is over us?
So we stand within your presence,
And humbly seek your grace.
Father Almighty, Jehovah, Saviour,
We long to meet you face to face
Let your glory fall upon us,
Convict, inspire, provide;
Father Almighty, Jehovah, Saviour,
Your holy presence is our guide
Lord, if your presence does not stay with us,
Please do not send us up from here.
How will anyone hear the truth and goodness
Unless your Word speaks through us?
Lord, if your presence is not in us
How can we minister your grace?
How will anyone feel your tender mercy
Unless your heart is in us?
