O Jesus Christ, to You

1O Jesus Christ, to You may hymns be rising,
In ev'ry city for Your love and care;
Inspire our worship, grant the glad surprising
That Your blest Spirit brings men ev'rywhere.

2Grant us new courage, sacrifice, and humble,
Strong in Your strength to venture and to dare,
To lift the fallen, guide the glad feet stumbling,
Seek out the lonely and God's mercy share.

3Show us Your Spirit brooding o'er each city,
As You did weep above Jerusalem,
Seek-ing to gather all in love and pity,
And heal-ing those who touch Your garment's hem.
