JESUS, MY REFUFGE.
And oh, how loving, dearest Lord, how tender
Beyond all love Thou
When to Thy feet we cling in full surrender,
With sorrow-broken heart!
Beyond all love Thou
When to Thy feet we cling in full surrender,
With sorrow-broken heart!
Absolving, healing, strengthening, uniting,
Through sacramental grace,
And to communion closer yet inviting,
Thou dost unveil Thy face.
Through sacramental grace,
And to communion closer yet inviting,
Thou dost unveil Thy face.
For faith alone low-kneeling in contrition
The load of sin grows light;
To faith alone Thou dost vouchsafe that vision,
And faith is almost sight.
The load of sin grows light;
To faith alone Thou dost vouchsafe that vision,
And faith is almost sight.
