LOVE AND GRATITUDE
324
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, And calms the troubled breast; 'Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary, rest.
4 Jesus! my shepherd, guardian, friend, My Prophet, Priest, and King; My Lord, my life, my way, my end, Accept the praise I bring.
3 Dear name! the rock on which I build,      5 Weak is the effort of my heart, My shield and hiding-place,                              And cold my warmest thought;
My never-failing treasury, filled                       But when I see Thee as Thou art,
With boundless stores of grace!                      I'll praise Thee as I ought.
Rev. John Newton, 1779

2   I see Thee in Thy weakness first;                  For me achieve Thy wondrous plan, I
Then, glorious from Thy shame,                     For me ascend on high.
I see Thee death's strong fetters burst,         Q let me share Thy holy birth) -And reach Thy mightiest name.                      Thy faith> Thy death to sin,
3   For me Thou didst become a man,                And, strong amidst the toils of earth,
For me didst weep and die;                             My heavenly life begin.
Rev. George W. Bethune, 1847
