Jesu, High and Holy

Jesu, High and holy,
Make my heart like Thine,
Humble, meek and lowly,
Full of love divine,
Keep me in Thy dwelling,
Pure and undefiled,
Every fear dispelling,
Let me be Thy child.

Thine alone for ever,
Saviour would I be;
Let not Satan sever
My young heart from Thee.
In Thine admonition
Daily may I grow
To Thy full fruition
While I live below.

Saviour, go beside me,
Never let me stray;
By Thy counsel guide me
All my pilgrim way.
Be my joy and treasure,
Grant me, Lord, to see
Truest peace and pleasure
Are in serving Thee.

~W. Robinson
