Jesus, merciful and mild
1
Jesus, merciful and mild,Lead me as a helpless child:On no other arm but thineWould my weary soul recline;Thou art ready to forgive,Thou canst bid the sinner live,Guide the wanderer, day by day,In the strait and narrow way.
2
Thou canst fit me by thy graceFor the heavenly dwelling-place;All thy promises are sure,Ever shall thy love endure;Then what more could I desire,How to greater bliss aspire?All I need, in thee I see;Thou art all in all to me.
3
Jesus, Saviour all divine,Hast thou made me truly thine?Hast thou bought me by thy blood?Reconciled my heart to God?Hearken to my tender prayer,Let me thine own image bear;Let me love thee more and more,Till I reach heaven's blissful shore.
