JESUS, GENTLEST SAVIOUR

  1. Jesus gentlest Saviour,
    God of might and power,
    Thou thyself art dwelling,
    In us at this hour.
  2. Nature cannot hold thee,
    Heaven is all too straight,
    For thine endless glory,
    And thy royal state.
  3. Yet the hearts of children,
    Hold what worlds cannot,
    And the God of wonders,
    Loves the lowly spot.
  4. Jesus, gentlest Saviour,
    Thou art in us now;
    Fill us full of goodness,
    Till our hearts o’erflow.
  5. Pray the prayer within us,
    That to heaven shall rise;
    Sing the song that angels,
    Sing above the skies.
  6. Multiply our graces,
    Chiefly love and fear,
    And dear Lord, the chiefest,
    Grace to persevere.
