46. The Mind of Jesus

1 Oh, to have the mind of Jesus,
Purer than the light of day;
Calm as skies that smile at morning,
When the storm has passed away!

Chorus:
Oh, to have the mind of Jesus!
Oh, to "see him as he is!"
This our highest, holiest longing,
This is heaven's crowning bliss.

2 Oh, to have the mind of Jesus,
With the heav'nly flame aglow;
Scatt'ring love's sweet benefactions.
All around us as we go! [Chorus]

3 Oh, to have the mind of Jesus,
On the Father's service bent;
Meek and lowly, true and faithful,
With the Father's will content! [Chorus]

4 Oh, to have the mind of Jesus,
When like him the cross we bear,
Patient in "much tribulation,"
Joyful through the pow'r of prayer! [Chorus]
