Shall we seek thee, Lord, in vain? 2 Lord, on thee our souls depend, In compassion now descend; Fill our hearts with thy rich grace, Tune our lips to sing thy praise. 3 In thine own appointed way, Now we seek thee; here we stay; Lord, we know not how to go, Till a blessing thou bestow. 4 Comfort those who weep and mourn; Let the time of joy return; Those that are cast down lift up; Make them strong in faith and hope. 5 Grant that all may seek and find Thee a God supremely kind; Heal the sick; the captive free; Let us all rejoice in thee.

I come to thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There, thy blood-bought right maintain, And, without a rival, reign. 4 While I am a pilgrim here, Let thy love my spirit cheer; As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend, Lead me to my journey's end. 5 Show me what I have to do, Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me die thy people's death.

What various stores of good, Diffused from our Redeemer's hand, And purchased with his blood. 4 Jesus, our living Head, We bless thy faithful care; Our Advocate before the throne, And our Forerunner there. 5 Here fix, my roving heart! Here wait, my warmest love! Till the communion be complete, In nobler scenes above. Languages: English Tune Title: SHIRLAND
