Lord Jesus, God and Man

Lord Je­sus

God and man

For love of man a child

The ve­ry God

yet born on earth

Of Ma­ry un­de­filed.

Lord Je­sus

God and man

In this our fes­tal day

To Thee for pre­cious gifts of grace

Thy ran­somed people pray.

We pray for child­like hearts

For gen­tle

holy love

For strength to do Thy will be­low

As an­gels do above.

We pray for sim­ple faith

For hope that nev­er fails

For true com­mun­ion ev­er­more

With all Thy bless­èd saints.

On friends around us here

O let Thy bless­ing fall;

We pray for grace to love them well

But Thee be­yond them all.

O joy to live for Thee!

O joy in Thee to die!

O ve­ry joy of joys to see

Thy face eter­nal­ly!

Lord Je­sus

God and man

We praise Thee and ad­ore

Who art with God the Fa­ther One

And Spir­it ev­er­more.
