Author: R. F. Beveridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Jesus, Who once for us did'st bleed Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Who once for us did'st bleed, We come before Thee in our need; Teach us to love and serve Thee more, And thy rich mercy full adore. 2 Oh may Thy cross and all its woe Never us to conquer ev'ry foe, Till in the greatness of Thy love, Our souls rejoice in Heav'n above. 3 The hands which heal'd the sick, the blind, Were nail'd for us that we may find Comfort in sorrow, from Thy death, Strength for our weakness, life and health. 4 Here would we lean upon Thy breast, And find in thee a perfect res; Wearied, our spirits sigh to know, More of Thy matchless grace below. 5 Sweet is the thought that we shall spend With Thee, our Saviour,Master, Friend, A holy, glad eternity, When form all sin and sorrow free. 6 Jesus, Who once for us did'st bleed, We come before Thee in our need; Teach us to love and serve thee more, And thy rich mercy full adore.
