Yet your sinless death has brought us Life eternal, peace, and rest; Only what your grace has taught us Calms the sinner's deep distress. 3 Jesus, may our hearts be burning With more fervent love for you; May our eyes be ever turning To behold your cross anew Till in glory, parted never From the blessed Savior's side, Graven in our hearts forever, Dwell the cross, the Crucified.

His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim, He knows the way he taketh, And I will walk with him. 3 Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o'er me, Where darkest clouds have been. My hope I cannot measure, The path to life is free; My Saviour has my treasure, And he will walk with me. Used With Tune: NYLAND
