Be Thou Supreme

Author: J. Temperley Grey Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ Lyrics: 1. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ, Nor creed, nor form, nor word, Nor holy church, nor human love, Compare with Thee, my Lord. 2. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ, Thy love has conquered me; Beneath Thy cross I die to self, And live alone to Thee. 3. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ, My inmost being fill; So shall I think as Thou dost think, And will as Thou dost will. 4. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ, Thy life transfigure mine; And through this veil of mortal flesh, Lord, let Thy splendors shine. 5. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ, My soul exults in Thee; To be Thy slave, to do Thy will, Is my felicity.
