Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #312 (1886) Lyrics: 1 We may not climb the heavenly steeps
To bring the Saviour 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 yet its Olivet,
And love its Galilee.
3 The healing of the 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! Topics: Christ Life and Character Tune Title: INVITATION
