And some have found the world is vain,
Yet from the world they break not free,
And some have friends who give them pain,
Yet have not sought a friend in thee ;
Yet from the world they break not free,
And some have friends who give them pain,
Yet have not sought a friend in thee ;
And none, Lord, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin ;
And they who fain would serve thee best
Are conscious most of wrong within.
For none are wholly free from sin ;
And they who fain would serve thee best
Are conscious most of wrong within.
Saviour Christ, thou too art man ;
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried ;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide ;
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried ;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide ;
Thy touch has still its ancient power,
No word from thee can fruitless fall ;
Hear, in this solemn evening hour.
And in thy mercy heal us all.
No word from thee can fruitless fall ;
Hear, in this solemn evening hour.
And in thy mercy heal us all.
