EN 3789 O Daughters Blest of Galilee
Luke.8.2
Versi Version 1
1
O daughters blest of Galilee,
With Jesus chose ye well to be,
Thrice happy holy company.
2
O joy, to see that Master dear!
O joy, to live with Him so near!
O joy, that gentle voice to hear!
3
O more than joy, to that dear Lord,
In purest, deepest love adored,
All lowly service to afford.
4
Yea, happy was your lot to bring
In loyal homage to your King
Each free and gracious offering.
5
O Jesus, throned above the height,
Adoring troops of angels bright
Wait on Thy bidding day and night.
6
Thy sacred form we cannot see,
Yet, Lord, these hands may render Thee
Each lowly act of charity.
7
For while, ’mid want and woe we move,
And tend Thy poor in gentle love,
We minister to Thee above.
8
O gracious Jesus, we confess,
Our poor cold love, our nothingness:
Yet Thou wilt own, and Thou wilt bless.
