Seek The Lord (While He May Be Found) | Roc O'Connor SJ | Catholic Hymn w/ Lyrics | Sunday 7pm Choir

"Seek The Lord" is a powerful Catholic hymn based on Isaiah 55:6-9 calling all to seek the Lord while He may be found! Written by American Roman Catholic priest and founder-member of the St Louis Jesuits (Robert) Roc O'Connor (b 1949), the hymn was originally published in 1975.

The original version of the song (sung here) has non-inclusive language but has since been revised by O'Connor in later publications. Publications in the 1990's suggested performing it vigorously (like our choir does) but many people have treated it more gently.

Recorded live by the Sunday 7pm Choir at St. Francis De Sales Church in Ajax, Ontario Canada. Thanks for listening and hope to see you at Mass one Sunday evening soon!

Lyrics:

Seek the Lord while He may be found,
call to Him while He is still near.

Today is the day and now the proper hour
to forsake our sinful lives and turn to the Lord.

Seek the Lord while He may be found,
call to Him while He is still near.

As high as the sky is above the earth,
so high above our ways, the ways of the Lord.

Seek the Lord while He may be found,
call to Him while He is still near.
