Jesus
my Lord
how rich Thy grace!
Thy bounties how complete!
How shall I count the matchless sum?
How pay the mighty debt?
High on a throne of radiant light
Dost Thou exalted shine;
What can my poverty bestow
When all the worlds are Thine?
But Thou hast brethren here below
The partners of Thy grace
And wilt confess their humble names
Before Thy Father’s face.
In them Thou mayst be clothed and fed
And visited and cheered
And in their accents of distress
My Savior’s voice is heard.
Thy face
with reverence and with love
I in Thy poor would see;
O rather let me beg my bread
Than hold it back from Thee.
