We have not known thee as we ought

Author: Thomas Benson Pollock (1836-96) Appears in 49 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 We have not known thee as we ought, Nor learned thy wisdom, grace and power; The things of earth have filled our thought, And trifles of the passing hour. Lord, give us light thy truth to see, And make us wise in knowing thee. 2 We have not feared thee as we ought, Nor bowed beneath thine aweful eye, Nor guarded deed and word and thought, Remembering that God was nigh. Lord, give us faith to know thee near, And gram the grace of holy fear. 3 We have not loved thee as we ought, Nor cared that we are loved by thee; Thy presence we have coldly sought, And feebly longed thy face to see. Lord, give a pure and loving heart To feel and know the love thou art. 4 We have not served thee as we ought; Alas, the duties left undone, The work with little fervour wrought, The battles lost or scarcely won! Lord, give the zeal, and give the might, For thee to toil, for thee to fight. 5 When shall we know thee as we ought, And fear and love and serve aright? When shall we, out of trial brought, Be perfect in the land of light? Lord, may we day by day prepare To see thy face and serve thee there.

Through the blood of the Lamb there is victory for me; He came to set his people free And give them perfect victory. 2 Sin will abound till grace comes in, Then grace shall triumph over sin; Just now, dear Saviour, let it be, Now give me perfect victory. 3 Be thou my strength, be thou my all, Then surely I shall never fall; If none can pluck me from thy hand, I more than conqueror shall stand. 4 ‘Tis true I have no room to boast; When most I’m saved I’m humbled most; Kept low by grace, and not by sin, My soul shall make her boast in him.
