Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #462 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Ever patient, gentle, meek,
Holy Saviour! was Thy mind;
Vainly in myself I seek,
Likeness to my Lord to find;
Yet, that mind which was in Thee,
May be, must be formed in me.
2 Days of toil, 'mid throngs of men,
Vexed not, ruffled not Thy soul;
Still, collected, calm, serene.
Thou each feeling couldst control.
Lord, that mind which was in Thee,
May be, must be formed in me.
3 Though such griefs were Thine to bear,
For each sufferer Thou couldst feel;
Every mourner's burden share,
Every wounded spirit heal:
Saviour! let thy grace in me
Form that mind which was in Thee.
Amen.
