HYMN 69.

Lord, if Thou Thy grace impart,
Poor in spirit, meek in heart,
Like the Saviour we shall be,
Cloth'd with His humility.

Simple, teachable, and mild;
Humble as a little child;
Pleas'd with what the Lord provides;
Wean'd from all the world besides.

Father fix our souls on Thee;
Ev'ry evil let us flee;
Always happy in Thy love;
Looking for our rest above.

All that seek will surely find
Ev'ry good in Christ combin'd;
Him let Israel still adore,
Trust and praise Him evermore.
