Author: Frank Mason North, 1850-1935 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #356 (2010) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
where sound the cries of race and clan,
above the noise of selfish strife,
we hear thy voice, O Son of Man.
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
on shadowed thresholds fraught with fears,
from paths where hide the lures of greed,
we catch the vision of thy tears.
3 The cup of water given for thee
still holds the freshness of thy grace;
yet long these multitudes to see
the true compassion of thy face.
4 O Master, from the mountainside,
make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again:
5 till all the world shall learn thy love,
and follow where thy feet have trod;
till, glorious from thy heaven above,
shall come the city of our God. Topics: General Hymns Church/Fellowship/Mission Languages: English Tune Title: WALTON (FULDA)
