CCLI. Thou Lamb of God, thou Prince of Peace

1 Thou Lamb of God, thou Prince of Peace
For thee my thirsty Soul doth pine!
My longing Heart implores thy grace:
O make me in thy Likeness shine!

2 With fraudless, even, humble mind
Thy Will in All Things may I see!
In love be ev'ry wish resign'd,
And hallow'd my whole heart to thee.

3 When pain o'er my weak flesh prevails
With lamb-like patience arm my breast;
When grief my wounded soul assails
In lowly meekness may I rest.

4 Close by thy side still may I keep,
Howe'er life's various current flow;
With stedfast eye mark ev'ry step,
And follow thee where'er thou go.

5 Thou, Lord, the dreadful fight hast won;
Alone thou hast the wine-press trod:
In me thy strength'ning grace be shown,
O may I conquer through thy blood!

6 So when on Sion thou shalt stand,
And all heaven's Host adore their King,
Shall I be found at thy right hand,
And free from pain thy glories sing.
