CHORUS
//Give me more joy, more peace, contentment,
And more gladness,
I long to feel in my soul that you are part of me.//
2
I feel your power swell, washing away my every care,
Lord, I am pleading you take up my soul and spirit;
With that beautiful fire, the promised Comforter.
3
Take up my heart. oh, Lord, and let your presence fill my heart.
I long to feel that you make my soul into your home,
So then in holy rapture I'll sing your every praise.

343. WITH TEARS THEY MARCH
....................................... ii..OtiJfNbi:f iiifili ....... .

With tears they march as they spread the seed of blessing,
With tears they march, in this world of wickedness;
But they'll return triumphant bringing their sheaves,
With hearts full of joy a brand new song they all shall sing.

CHORUS
How lovely are the feet upon the mountains,
Of those who earry the news of heaven, for salvation;
They're holy, they're very precious, and well beloved,
Upon the last day near the Father, they will be.
<Finale):// With tears they go, With tears they go//)
2
How many soldiers in the battle now have fallen?
They have been fighting in this world with Satan's hosts;
They raised the banner in the fields of battle,
Preaching the gospel, ever advancing, steadfast and strong.
3
Although the battle may be arduous and full of darkness,
Though our strength wanes, and our knees are giving out;
But we'll be given the strength and be replenished,
His Holy Spirit, our God will send us, without delay.
