Úr Jézus, Adj Hitet, Adj!

Representative Text

1 Úr Jézus, adj hitet, adj,
Jöjj, és énbennem maradj!
Kegyelmed megigazít,
Képedre átalakít.
Ha van bennem élő hit.

2 Ajándék az élő hit,
Mely kegyelmet közvetít.
Hát a hit még, mit tehet?
Cselekszik, áld és szeret.
Adja ezt meg Szentlelked!

3 Ha a hit nem szó marad,
Bűn felett győzelmet ad.
A halálból fölemel,
Újjá tesz, és megszentel,
Jézus, bennem így leszel!

4 Benned rejtve életem,
Szent Ígédből él hitem.
Napról napra gyógyító,
Szívem míg formálható,
Jézus bennem látható.
