Jesus, Savior, We Would See Thee

lyricist: John Devins, 1902
Composer: Ira Sankey

Jesus

Sav­ior

we would see Thee

Lifted high up­on the tree;

Bearing there our sins and sor­rows

Setting us for­ev­er free.

We would see Je­sus

we would see Je­sus;

He is our Sav­ior

and glo­ri­ous king;

Him would we fol­low

thro’ sun­shine and sha­dow;

Now and for­ev­er His prais­es will sing.

Jesus

Teach­er

we would hear Thee

Hear Thy voice and it alone:

Learn the les­sons Thou wouldst teach us

Speak the words that Thou wilt own.

Jesus

Mas­ter

we would serve Thee

Fill each day with lov­ing deeds;

Comfort those whose hearts are wea­ry

Like Thy­self sup­ply their needs.

Seeing

hear­ing

learn­ing

speak­ing

Serving dai­ly

faith­ful­ly;

May men see in us

Thy breth­ren

All that Thou wouldst have us be.
