SDA HYMNAL 363 – Lord, Whose Love in Humble Service

        1
        Lord, whose love in humble service
        Bore the weight of human need,
        Who upon the cross, forsaken,
        Worked Your mercy’s perfect deed:
        We, Your servants, bring the worship
        Not of voice alone, but heart;
        Consecrating to Your purpose
        Every gift which You impart.

        2
        Still Your children wander homeless;
        Still the hungry cry for bread;
        Still the captives long for freedom;
        Still in grief we mourn our dead.
        As you, Lord, in deep compassion
        Healed the sick and freed the soul,
        By Your Spirit send Your power
        To our world to make it whole.

        3
        As we worship, grant us vision,
        Till your love’s revealing light
        In its height and depth and greatness
        Dawns upon our quickened sight,
        Making known the needs and burdens
        Your compassion bids us bear,
        Stirring us to ardent service,
        Your abundant life to share.
