256:Jesus, Lord, we come to hail thee

Tunes: Beautiful Zion, 359
Salvator, 377
Meter: 8.7.8.7.D. Trochaic

JESUS, Lord, we come to hail thee,
Love of God to us made known,
From thy lips his Word is spoken,
Through thy life, his life is shown;
We are come to seek the Father,
Come with burdens, joy and care;
Lead us to his holy presence
Through the open door of prayer.

2 Loving friend, we stand before thee
Without merit or pretence;
Teach us, guide us as we follow,
Trusting in thy sure defence;
We would contemplate thy goodness,
Finding fortitude and grace,
Learning of our Father?s mercy
In the beauty of thy face.

3 Saviour-King, we wait beside thee,
When earth?s deepening shades descend,
Still with thee in faith abiding
While the storms of trial rend;
Drawing closer as thou prayest:
Father, let thy will be done;
Sharing in the new communion
When the victory is won.

Catherine
