Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: Concordia #143 (1918) First Line: We may not climb the heav'nly steeps Lyrics: 1 We may not climb the heav'nly steeps
To bring the Lord Christ down;
In vain we search the lowest deeps,
For Him no depths can drown.
2 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet
A present help is He;
And faith has still its Olivet,
And love its Galilee.
3 The healing of the seamless dress
Is by our beds of pain;
We touch Him in life’s throng and press,
And we are whole again.
4 O Lord and Master of us all,
Whate’er our name or sign,
We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call,
We test our lives by Thine! Topics: The Christian Life Trust and Confidence; Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY
