Our Blest Redeemer, Ere He Breathed

Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: Light in the Valley #33 (1898) Lyrics: 1 Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed His tender, last farewell, A guide, a Comforter bequeathed, With us to dwell. 2 He came, sweet influence to impart, A gracious, willing Guest, While he can find one humble heart Wherein to rest. 3 And ev'ry virtue we possess, And ev'ry vict'ry won, And ev'ry thought of holiness Is his alone. 4 Spirit of purity and grace! Our weakness pitying see; Oh, make our hearts thy dwelling place, And worthier thee! Topics: The Saviour Languages: English Tune Title: [Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed]

Amen. Topics: Whitsuntide; General Languages: English Tune Title: [Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed]
