Evangelical Lutheran hymnal ‎#388

388. Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing

1 Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing,
What grateful tribute shall I bring,
That earth and heav'n and all may see
My love to Him who died for me?

2 That off'ring, Lord, Thy word hath taught,
Nor be Thy new command forgot,
That, if their Master's death can move,
Thy servants should each other love.
