LORD JESUS, COME

Lord Jesus come,  and take us from this scene
Where we are touched  by maladies which pierce;
None but Thyself  can finally relieve
From every ill  by which we are bereaved,
From every woe  by which we are made weak,
From every sin  by which we know defeat;
Only by Thee  in whom we are redeemed
Can we obtain  our ultimate release;
Only by Thee  and what Thou hast achieved
Can we acquire  an everlasting peace;
Lord Jesus, come  and save us, we entreat,
From sin and death  and pain and loss and grief.
