Lord, is it I?
Would I be my brothers keeper?
Lord, is it I?
Would I stop to give thee bread?
Lord, is it I?
Would I help the sick and naked?
Lord, is it I?
Would I trod where you have tread?
I would follow thee,
Lord, I would never take offense.
I would wield the sword
Of truth and light in thy defense.
In the spirit, Lord,
I know that I would die,
But, in the flesh, I wonder even so
Lord, is it I?
Ben, This is really beautiful. I can't wait to hear it put to music!
