True Son of God and man,
By Whom all things consist,
In Whom all life began:
In Thee alone we live and move,
And have our being in Thy love.
2 Thou art the Way to God,
Thy blood our ransom paid;
In Thee we face our Judge
And Maker unafraid.
Before the throne absolved we stand,
Thy love has met Thy law’s demand.
3 Thou art the living Truth!
All wisdom dwells in Thee,
The Source of every skill,
Eternal Verity!
Thou great I AM! in Thee we rest,
Sure answer to our every quest.
4 Thou only art true Life,
To know Thee is to live
The more abundant life
That earth can never give:
O risen Lord! We live in Thee,
And Thou in us eternally.
5 We worship you, Lord Christ,
Our Savior and our King,
To Thee our youth and strength
Adoringly we bring:
So fill our hearts, that men may see
Thy life in us, and turn to Thee!
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 5:16 Used With Tune: DARWALL
We Come, O Christ, to Thee
