May the Lord make your love increase and overflow

1. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God,
God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, (repeat)

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God,
If any of you lacks wisdom, it will be given to you.

2. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one
who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. (chorus)

3. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.
Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. (chorus)

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God,
If any of you lacks wisdom, it will be given to you. James 1:5-8

Dedicated to Kabanda Peter Laston, from Uganda

greater than he who is in the world.

You are of God, little children,
You are of God,
You are of God, little children,
and have overcome them

because He who is in you is greater than he,

He who is in you is greater than he,
greater than he who is in the world.
greater than he who is in the world.

Without faith it is impossible
it is impossible to please God,
Without faith it is impossible

to him must believe
that he exists and that he rewards
those who earnestly seek him.

Without faith it is impossible
it is impossible to please God,
Without faith it is impossible
it is impossible to please God
