1 O blessed, living Lord,
Engage our hearts with Thee,
And strike within some answ'ring chord
To love so rich and free!
2 To know Thy loving heart!
To cleave to Thy blest side!
To gaze upon Thee where Thou art,
And in Thy love abide!
3 To walk with Thee below!
To learn Thy holy ways!
And more to Thine own stature grow,
To Thine eternal praise!
