|
<p>Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,<br>
|
|
Which before the cross we spend,<br>
|
|
Life and health and peace possessing<br>
|
|
From the sinner’s dying Friend.</p>
|
|
<p>Here I stay, forever viewing<br>
|
|
Mercy streaming in His blood;<br>
|
|
Precious drops, my soul bedewing,<br>
|
|
Plead and claim my peace with God.</p>
|
|
<p>Truly blessèd is the station,<br>
|
|
Low before His cross to lie,<br>
|
|
While I see divine compassion<br>
|
|
Floating in His languid eye.</p>
|
|
<p>Here we find our hope of heaven,<br>
|
|
While upon the Lamb we gaze;<br>
|
|
Loving much, and much forgiven,<br>
|
|
Let our hearts o’erflow with praise.</p>
|
|
<p>Lord, in ceaseless contemplation<br>
|
|
Fix our hearts and eyes on Thee,<br>
|
|
Till we taste Thy full salvation,<br>
|
|
And unveiled Thy glories see.</p>
|
|
<p>For Thy sorrows we adore Thee,<br>
|
|
For the griefs that wrought our peace;<br>
|
|
Gracious Savior, we implore Thee,<br>
|
|
In our hearts Thy love increase.</p>
