174. O Patient, Spotless One

S.M.
by F.T. Wigram
1
O patient, spotless One!
 
Our hearts in meekness train,
 
To bear Thy yoke, and learn of Thee,
 
That we may rest obtain.
2
Jesus! Thou art enough
 
The mind and heart to fill;
 
Thy patient life — to calm the soul;
 
Thy love — its fear dispel.
3
Oh fix our earnest gaze
 
So wholly, Lord, on Thee,
 
That, with Thy beauty occupied,
 
We elsewhere none may see.
