Text:Whom am I Seeking?
Author:E. E. Hewitt
Tune:[Swiftly, so swiftly, the years roll along]
Composer:Jno. R. Sweney

99. Whom am I Seeking?

1 Swiftly, so swiftly, the years roll along,
Burdened with trials or happy with song;
How am I working as time glides away?
Whom am I seeking for Jesus today?

Refrain:
Seeking so patiently, seeking with care;
Seeking with loving words, seeking with prayer;
Whom am I seeking? for whom do I pray?
Whom am I seeking for Jesus today?

2 Whom am I seeking of those whom I love
Trying to lead them to Jesus above;
Watching and praying, wherever I may,
Whom am I seeking for Jesus today? [Refrain]

3 Jesus the Shepherd is seeking his own;
Shall he go after the lost sheep alone?
Oh, in his work to be near him alway;
Whom am I seeking for Jesus today? [Refrain]

4 Sweet is the voice of his love in my soul,
Sweet is the power of his grace to control;
Seeking for others like blessings to share,
Whom am I bringing to Jesus in prayer? [Refrain]
