We May Not Climb the Heavenly Steeps

Author: John G Whittier Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #369 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 We may not climb the heavenly steeps To bring the Lord Christ down; In vain we search the lowest deeps, For Him no depths can drown. 2 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet A present help is He, And faith has still its Olivet, And love its Galilee. 3 The healing of His seamless dress Is by our beds of pain; We touch Him in life’s throng and press, And we are whole again. 4 Through Him the first fond prayers are said, Our lips of childhood frame; The last low whispers of our dead Are burdened with His name. 5 O Lord and Master of us all, Whate’er our name or sign, We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call, We test our lives by Thine! AMEN. Topics: Lay and Ordained Ministry Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY
