Author: Frank Mason North, 1850-1935 Hymnal: ASB1938 #274 (1938) Lyrics: 1 O Christ, my Lord, whose perfect life
Alone can make my life complete,
With tears I bring that life to Thee,
And lay it at Thy feet.
2 The gifts of earth it has not lacked;
It knows the world’s felicity;
Yet, Thee unknown, this golden wealth
Is direful poverty.
3 No human life was ever blessed
With human love more rich and rare;
But never finds my heart its peace,
Unless Thyself art there.
4 The grace of gentlest ministries,
The precious boon of love’s caress,
Without Thy tender words and touch,
Leave only restlessness.
Amen.
