1222. Give me one pure and holy passion

Author: Mark Altrogge

Give me one pure and holy passion,
give me one magnificent obsession.
Jesus, give me one glorious ambition for my life:
to know and follow hard after you.

To know and follow hard after you,
to grow as your disciple in the truth.
This world is empty, pale and poor
compared to knowing you, my Lord;
lead me on and I will run after you.

(BASED ON 2 CORINTHIANS 7:1)
