Author: Richard Mant Hymnal: Church Book #229 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Holy Jesus, Saviour blest,
When by passion strong possest
Through this world of sin we stray,
Thou to guide us art the Way.
2 Holy Lord, when error's night
Dims and blinds our clouded sight,
Through the mists of sin to shine,
Thou dost rise, the Truth divine.
3 Holy Jesus, when our power
Fails us in temptation's hour,
All unequal to the strife,
Thou to aid us art the Life.
4 Who would reach the heavenly home,
Who would to the Father come,
Who the Father's presence see,
Jesus, he must come by Thee.
5 Channel of the Father's grace,
Image of the Father's face,
Saviour blest, incarnate Son,
With the Father thou art One.
6 Glory to the Father be,
Glory, only Son, to Thee;
And, of equal power confest,
Glory to the Spirit blest. Topics: Communion with Christ; Epiphany, Third Sunday; Sundays in Lent; Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity; Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: CULBACH
