Separated Seeker

"Blessed are they that keep His testimonies, and that seek Him with the whole heart. They also do no iniquity: they walk in His ways" (Psalm 119:2,3). "Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom" (Proverbs 18:1).

There is passion like a fire,
A flaming purpose to fulfill,
That separates us by desire,
To seek the Lord and do His will.

There is a heart of separation,
Committed to the cause of Christ.
That seeks a greater consecration,
As lesser things are sacrificed.

Grant us, Lord, this steadfast heart
To do Your will and seek Your face.
Set us by Your truth apart,
And sanctify us by Your grace.
