Lord, grant me a simple faith
Unfettered by my wandr’ing mind
A faith that shines with burning light
That men, through me, might You they find
Lord, grant me a simple faith
That stands against my questioning soul
To heal the brokenness inside
So I might once more be made whole
Lord, grant me a simple faith
That does not fall for feel nor fad
A simple trust in what You say
A trust that is not easily snared
Lord, grant me a simple faith
Give me Your love and perfect peace
That I may stand upon the Rock
Unfazed by storms and squalls and seas
Lord, grant me a simple faith
In confidence surrender all
Not to cling to my own strength
Always trusting, lest I fall
Lord, grant me a simple faith
As I lead others in the race
To hear Your voice soft in my heart
That I may in You set my pace
Lord, grant me a simple faith
That pleases You and Spirit, too
So I be found on that Great Day
a faithful servant, brave and true
Lord, grant me a simple faith
