Hopeless Quest
Through the plains of heaven I see
love and perfect charity.
Humility reigns in God the Son
as souls adore Him endlessly.
O hopeless quest that I might be
a humble loving bride for Thee!
O Lord, most pure and spotless Lamb
look down from heaven and see,
I stand before Thee covered in filth.
In Your compassion, take pity on me!
Hard as I try, I fall and fall.
I'm filled with disgusting pride.
But You, my Lord, my Spotless Lamb,
see how destitute I am
with nothing of my own!
Take me, Lord, with You, I ask.
Be Thou my strength and perfect Love
That You might take my hopeless quest,
And look at me that I might see,
You love me as I am.
