If I had but one request
I’d ask to be made faithful
God I want to hear You say, «Beloved friend, well done!»
If I had one more request, I’d ask to be found thankful
For the trials I meet each day and Your strength to overcome
Faithful… faithful…
One with You in kindred heart
Keep me ever as You are,
Faithful
If I had but one breath left, I hope You’d find me faithful
To spend it calling out the name of the One I love
If I had yet one more breath, I hope You’d hear me thankful
That I had done all You had asked
And was ready now to come.
