Seekers Sought

“The LORD hath sought Him a man after His own heart” (1 Samuel 13:14).  “Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee:  and let such as love Thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified” (Psalm 70:4).  “I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after Mine own heart, which shall fulfill all My will” (Acts 13:22).  

The Lord sought for one who was after His heart;
In David He found one to do all His will.
Now this is the canvass of God’s work of art,
And this is the heart God is seeking for still. 

So let all who seek Him rejoice in the Lord,
And let such as love His salvation now say:
May God be exalted with praise and adored
And reign in the hearts that will gladly obey!

O Lord, in the Scripture we’re hearing Your voice,
Conveying Your own heart which we now pursue,
That calls us to seek You and greatly rejoice
As we are delighting our own hearts in You!
