Author: George R. Prynne Hymnal: The Hymnal #361 (1916) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Lyrics:
Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God most high,
Pitying, loving Savior,
Hear thy children's cry.
Pardon our offenses,
Loose our captive chains,
Break down every idol
Which our soul detains.
Give us holy freedom
Fill our hearts with love;
Draw us, holy Jesus,
To the realms above.
Lead us on our journey,
Be thyself the way
Through terrestrial darkness
To celestial day.
328
Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God most high,
Pitying, loving Savior,
Hear thy children's cry.
Amen.
