I see Thy cross - there teach my heart to cling; O let me seek Thee, and O let me find. 3 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh; Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear - To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer. 4 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love, One holy passion filling all my frame: The baptism of the heav'n-descended Dove - My heart an altar and Thy love the flame. Amen. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE
