1 We come, O Christ, to Thee,
True Son of God and man,
By whom all things consist,
In whom all life began:
In Thee alone we live and move
And have our being in Thy love.
2 Thou art the Way to God,
Thy blood our ransom paid;
In Thee we face our Judge
And Maker unafraid.
Before the Throne absolved we stand:
Thy love has met Thy law's demand.
3 Thou art the living Truth!
All wisdom dwells in Thee,
Thou Source of every skill,
Eternal Verity!
Thou great I Am! In Thee we rest,
True answer to our every quest.
4 Thou only art true Life,
To know Thee is to live
The more abundant life
That earth can never give:
O Risen Lord! We live in Thee
And Thou in us eternally!
5 We worship Thee Lord Christ,
Our Savior and our King,
To Thee our youth and strength
Adoringly we bring:
So fill our hearts that men may see
Thy life in us and turn to Thee!
