As I Search the Holy Scriptures
1. As I search the holy scriptures,
Loving Father of mankind,
May my heart be blessed with wisdom,
And may knowledge fill my mind.
2. As I search the holy scriptures,
Touch my spirit, Lord, I pray.
May life’s myst’ries be unfolded
As I study day by day.
Oh, day by day.
3. As I search the holy scriptures,
May Thy mercy be revealed.
Soothe my troubled heart and spirit;
May my unseen wounds be healed.
Yeah. My wounds be healed.
4. As I search the holy scriptures,
Help me ponder and obey.
In Thy word is life eternal;
May Thy light show me the way.
Show me the way. Show me the way.
Ooh.
