Thou whose name is called Jesus

Thou whose name is called Jesus

Risen Lord of life and pow’r

Oh

it is so sweet to trust Thee

Every day and every hour;

Of Thy wondrous grace I sing

Savior

Counsellor

and King.

Thou canst keep my feet from falling

Even my poor wayward feet;

Thou who dost present me faultless

In Thee—Righteousness complete;

Jesus

Lord

in knowing Thee

Oh

what strength and victory.

All the sin in me

my Savior

Thou canst conquer and subdue;

With Thy sanctifying power

Permeate my spirit through;

Let Thy government increase

Risen

crowned

Prince of Peace.

Thou canst keep me upward looking

Ever upward in Thy face;

Thou canst make me stand

upholden

By the greatness of Thy grace;

Every promise of Thy word

Now I claim from Thee

dear Lord.

Oh! what joy to trust Thee

Jesus

Mighty Victor o’er the grave

And to learn amid earth’s shadows

Thine unceasing power to save!

Only those who prove Thee know

What the grace Thou dost bestow.

Make my life a bright outshining

Of Thy life

that all may see

Thine own resurrection power

Mightily put forth in me;

Ever let my heart become

Yet more consciously Thy home.
