Text: | "Perfect," O Lord? |
Author: | C. C. Dawson |
Tune: | ["Perfect," O Lord? the word is Thine] |
Composer: | Arthur Henry Brown |
1 “Perfect,” O Lord? the word is Thine;
Weakness and sin, alas, are mine;
I strive in vain for saintly grace,
And when I see Thee, hide my face.
2 Thou, Lord, art perfect; far above
All love of angels is Thy love;
In love Thou gavest the command,
In love extend Thy helping hand.
3 Without Thy help, O Lord, in vain
Are sorrow, penitence, and pain;
My eyes are blinded, and I stray;
Touch them, dear Lord, and show the way.
