We Need Not Climb the Heavenly Steeps

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, (1802-1892) Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #196 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: We need 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 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. 3 Through Him the first fond prayers are said Our lips of childhood frame; The last low whispers of our dead Are burdened with His Name. 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!

The true Test

Whittier Hymnal: Laudes Domini #200 (1888) First Line: We may not climb the heavenly steeps Lyrics: 1 We may not climb the heavenly 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 yet 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 Through him the first fond prayers are said Our lips of childhood frame; The last low whispers of our dead Are burdened with his name. 5 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!

Lord Jesus, on the Holy Mount

Author: John Anketell Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #205 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, on the holy mount We would abide with Thee, Still drinking from the blessed fount Of grace, so rich and free. 2 There prophets praise Thy glorious Name, And deeds which Thou hast done; And there the Father's words proclaim His own beloved Son. 3 The rays of Thy transfigured face Beam with such golden light That we would never leave the place, Nor lose the heavenly sight. 4 But there is work on earth to do, The suffering souls to heal; The harvest great, the laborers few Thy kingdom to reveal. 5 We may not linger on the mount, Where bright Thy glories shine; We may not taste the sacred fount Of blessedness divine. 6 But let some beams of heavenly light Make bright our earthly way; Then grant the beatific sight Of heaven the endless day. Amen.
