|
<p>Master, no offering costly and sweet,<br>
|
|
May we, like Magdalene, lay at Thy feet;<br>
|
|
Yet may love’s incense rise, sweeter than sacrifice,<br>
|
|
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.</p>
|
|
<p>Daily our lives would show weakness made strong,<br>
|
|
Toilsome and gloomy ways brightened by song;<br>
|
|
Some deeds of kindness done, some souls by patience won,<br>
|
|
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.</p>
|
|
<p>Some word of hope for hearts burdened with fears,<br>
|
|
Some balm of peace for eyes blinded with tears,<br>
|
|
Some dews of mercy shed, some wayward footsteps led,<br>
|
|
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.</p>
|
|
<p>Thus, in Thy service, Lord, till eventide<br>
|
|
Closes the day of life may we abide;<br>
|
|
And when earth’s labors cease, bid us depart in peace,<br>
|
|
Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.</p>
