Text: | "The Head, even Christ" |
Author: | Charles Wesley |
Tune: | EVANGELIST |
Arranger: | fr. Mendelssohn |
1 Blest be the dear, uniting love,
That will not let us part:
Our bodies may far off remove;
We still are one in heart.
2 Joined in one spirit to our Head,
Where he appoints we go;
We still in Jesus' footsteps tread,
And show his praise below.
3 Oh, may we ever walk in him,
And nothing know beside!
Nothing desire, nothing esteem,
But Jesus crucified!
4 Partakers of the Saviour's grace,
The same in mind and heart,
Not joy nor grief nor time nor place
Nor life nor death can part.
