EN 4504 O Perfect God, Thy Love
John.19.28
Versi Version 1
1
O perfect God, Thy love
As perfect Man did share
Here upon earth each form of ill
Thy fellow men must bear.
2
Now from the tree of scorn
We hear Thy voice again;
Thou Who didst take our mortal flesh
Hast felt our mortal pain.
3
Thy body suffers thirst,
Parched are Thy lips and dry:
How poor the offering man can bring
Thy thirst to satisfy!
4
O Savior, by Thy thirst
Borne on the cross of shame,
Grant us in all our sufferings leave
To glorify Thy Name.
5
That through each pain and grief
Our souls may onward move
To gain more likeness to Thy life,
More knowledge of Thy love.
