Jesus, Leite Mich Mit Deinen Augen!

Jesus, lead me with your eyes!
I want to go because you tell me to go.
But because my strength is not much good,
I ask for your strong spirit: only in your power will I dare.
Without you, the mission won't succeed.
But because you send me, I will say:
Jesus, I want to go. Send me

Before me lies your world like a vast field of harvest,
But so often I oversleep the time.
Lord, awaken our land! Awaken your people, whom you have sent!
Awaken me! Drive away the tiredness!

Jesus, lead me with your eyes!
I want to go because you tell me to go.
But because my strength is not much good,
I ask for your strong spirit: only in your power will I dare.
Without you, the mission won't succeed.
But because you send me, I will say:
Jesus, I want to go. Send me

But that's easier said than done. How often have I failed?!
I did not fulfill my promise.
Pious words, so familiar, I have used too often.
Help me, Lord,
Let me not be a hypocrite!

Jesus, lead me with your eyes!
I want to go because you tell me to go.
But because my strength is not much good,
I ask for your strong spirit: only in your power will I dare.
Without you, the mission won't succeed.
But because you send me, I will say:
Jesus, I want to go. Send me

Lord, I marvel at you. Unchanged, you hold me.
I fail, but you remain faithful.
Incomparable, how you love, how you forgive me of my guilt.
With gratitude, I ask for it anew

Jesus, lead me with your eyes!
I want to go because you tell me to go.
But because my strength is not much good,
I ask for your strong spirit: only in your power will I dare.
Without you, the mission won't succeed.
But because you send me, I will say:
Jesus, I want to go. Send me
