Hymn 314: Christ Jesus, Saviour, I behold

Jesu, Olugbala, wo mi

  1. Christ Jesus, Saviour, I behold
    Weary am I and groaning too
    Here I come, Thee to rest upon
    Thou art my rest.

  2. Gaze upon me exhausted am I
    The journey farther, beyond me
    Thine helping strength by grace I seek
    Thou art my strength.

  3. Along my path am sore distressed
    Darkness and storm engulfed the dusk
    Beam to my path Thine shinning light
    Thou art my light.

  4. When satan’s arrows hence is shot
    Nay scary, Thou I look upon
    Thine sacred cross my protection
    Thou art my peace.

  5. Lonely am I at Jordan’s shore
    Striving, tensely fighting as of old
    Would Thou permit me all to see
    Thou art my life.

  6. For all my needs, Thou shall provide
    In every wise unto the end
    In life, in death and evermore.
    Thou art my all. Amin.
