The Wish

Author: Hart Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ First Line: If dust and ashes might presume Lyrics: 1 If dust and ashes might presume, Great God, to talk to thee; If in thy presence can be room For crawling worms like me; I humbly would my wish present, For wishes I have none; All my desires are now content To be comprised in one. 2 The single boon I would entreat Is, to be led by thee To gaze upon thy bloody sweat In sad Gethsemane. To view (as I could bear at least) Thy tender, broken heart, Like a rich olive, bruised and pressed With agonising smart. 3 [To see thee bowed beneath my guilt; (Intolerable load!) To see thy blood for sinners spilt, My groaning, gasping God! With sympathising grief to mourn The sorrows of thy soul: The pangs and tortures by thee borne In some degree condole.] 4 There musing on thy mighty love, I always would remain; Or but to Golgotha remove, And thence return again. In each dear place the same rich scene Should ever be renewed; No object else should intervene, But all be love and blood. 5 For this one favour oft I’ve sought; And if this one be given, I seek on earth no happier lot, And hope the like in heaven. Lord, pardon what I ask amiss, For knowledge I have none; I do but humbly speak my wish; And may thy will be done.

Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Used With Tune: ST. MARGARET
