Author: Bishop R. Heber Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #146 (1894) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Thou, Who gav'st Thy servant grace
On Thee, the living Rock to rest,
To look on Thine unveilèd face,
And lean on Thy protecting breast;
2 Grant us, O King of mercy, still
To feel Thy presence from above,
And in Thy word, and in Thy will
To hear Thy voice and know Thy love;
3 And when the toils of life are done,
And nature waits Thy just decree,
To find our rest beneath Thy throne,
And look in certain hope to Thee.
4 To Thee, O Jesus, Light of Light,
Whom as their King the saints adore,
Thou strength and refuge in the fight,
Be laud and glory evermore.
Amen.
