Hymn Context Compare
Thou art pure and strong;
start
Close in Thy fond em­brace.
In their white robes ar­rayed!
Around Thee now we press.
Me from sin­ful plea­sures to be Thine, O Lord.
I died that you might be made whole.
I died that you might be made whole.
To the harp and the crown for me there.
And a friend I in Je­sus hail.
Shout the praise of His dear name;

dear Je­sus

Lead Thy child along.
This world is wide and cold,
Nothing be­tween;
From all na­tions, and kin­dreds,
For O we long to know
How will­ing for serv­ice and praise I should be!
Thy name I adore,
Thy name I adore,
Ever long­ing, all the beau­ties of Heav­en to see.
Now my ach­ing bo­som has balm for woe,
While His pre­sence feeds the flame.
