Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #336 (1870) Lyrics: 1 Ever patient, gentle, meek,
Holy Saviour! was Thy mind;
Vainly in myself I seek,
Likeness to my Lord to find;
Yet, that mind which was in Thee,
May be, must be form'd in me.
2 Days of toil, 'mid throngs of men,
Vex'd not, ruffled not Thy soul;
Still, collected, calm, serene,
Thou each feeling couldst control.
Lord, that mind which was in Thee,
May be, must be form'd in me.
3 Though such griefs were Thine to bear,
For each suff'rer Thou couldst feel;
Every mourner's burden share,
Every wounded spirit heal:
Saviour! let thy grace in me
Form that mind which was in Thee. Topics: Christians their life and experience; Example of Christ; Forbearance; Fruits of the Spirit meekness and humility; Gentleness; Holy Spirit Fruits of; Humility; Likeness to God and Christ; Meekness; Patience Languages: English
