1 Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God, Most High,
Pitying, loving Saviour,
Hear Thy children's cry.
2 Pardon our offences,
Loose our captive chains,
Break down every idol
Which our soul detains.
3 Give us holy freedom,
Fill our hearts with love,
Draw us, Holy Jesus,
To the realms above.
4 Lead us on our journey,
Be Thyself the Way
Through terrestrial darkness
To celestial day.
Amen.
