Seeking For Me!

"Seeking For Me!" is a deeply personal, reflective hymn that traces the journey of Christ's love from the manger to the cross, and ultimately to His promised return. Written by E. E. Hasty, the song is structured around four distinct phases of Jesus' ministry and sacrifice, with each verse emphasizing a different action: seeking, dying, calling, and coming.

In the Catholic choir loft, this piece is often sung during Communion. Its gentle, repetitive refrain—which shifts its lyrics to match the theme of each verse—gives the congregation a moment to meditate on the intimate nature of salvation. The simple solfa arrangement makes it accessible for choirs to learn and harmonize smoothly.

The hymn's power lies in its direct, one-on-one language. By repeating "for me, for me!" at the end of every phrase, it transforms the grand narrative of the Gospel into a personal declaration of faith, reminding every singer and listener of their individual worth in the eyes of God.
