Devotional for February 23

Once more we come before our God;

Once more his blessing ask:

O may not duty seem a load,

Nor worship prove a task.

 

Father, thy quick’ning Spirit send

From heaven, in Jesus’ name,

And bid our waiting minds attend,

And put our souls in frame.

 

May we receive the word we hear,

Each in an honest heart;

And keep the precious treasure there,

And never with it part.

 

To seek thee, all our hearts dispose;

To each thy blessings suit;

And let the seed thy servant sows,

Produce abundant fruit.
