A higher view

NS134
1
Prod me with Your loving hands,
Stir me from my deep impasse.
I long to flee this stagnant rut;
My soul, my prison, deadened lot,
Which end is just to taste Your wrath;
So set me on the narrow path.
Thorns and thistles may line this road
But it leads me to the mutual abode.

Lift me up with Your mighty hand
Above this frenzied earthly land.
Set me on the mount to see
What the world can offer me;
Till I see the vanity from on high
And earthly desires I bid goodbye
And set my eyes on You.
AProd 
me with Your loving 
F#mhands, 
DStir 
me from my deep im
Epasse. 
Along

It is the same, but in Ukainian:

Любляча рука Твоя

Хай веде мене, бо я

Лишити мушу згубний шлях,

Та дух мертвить душа моя,

Це виллє на мене гнів Твій.

Тож дай мені вузький шлях Свій,

І хоч цей шлях крізь терен іде,

Та в взаємну він оселю нас веде.

Тож міцною рукою Ти

Мене над землею здійми.

Згори подивлюсь, мені

Дати може що цей світ.

Я побачу марноту з вишини,

Бажанням скажу: прощавай, земним

І дивлюсь лиш на Тебе.

My Lord knows how I easily backslide from His dear presence. How I need Him to prod me with His loving hand, that I may turn away from everything else unto Jesus!

"Prod me with Your loving hands...

Stir me from my deep impasse...

Lift me up with Your mighty hand..."

Lord, You know my condition. Only You can save and lift me away from the world. Lift me higher and higher in my experience of You. Even make my eyes clear enough to see all the world's vanity...Just set my eyes on You.
