O Love Supreme, for ever near

Author: F. T. Read Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #371 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O Love Supreme, for ever near In Christ our brother working man, We pray Thee in our midst appear And help us as we toil and plan; O wonderful that Thou shouldst be The Carpenter of Galilee! 2 Great Brother, here with us abide, Thyself the pattern all men need; Thy hand to check, Thine eye to guide, Thy will our wayward wills to lead; Our Healer when we disagree; The Carpenter of Galilee. 3 In truest union may we be Bound by a common Christ-like good, In temperance, honour, purity, And self-forgetful brotherhood; Our rules, the Gospel precepts free The Carpenter's of Galilee. 4 Whene'er our zeal is burning low, When right is hard, and easy wrong; When we despair at progress slow, And the old sins are pulling strong, Then for fresh strength we turn to Thee, The Carpenter of Galilee. 5 Go forth with us, Thou wondrous Guest, We need Thee in the shop, the home; Thy presence will our steps arrest When we shall tempted be to roam; And men in us Thyself shall see, The Carpenter of Galilee.
