Jesus, for Thee and Thy blessed Communion

Author: P. J. Hygom; C. Doving Hymnal: Concordia #170 (1918) Hymnal Title: Concordia Lyrics: 1 Jesus, for Thee and Thy blessed communion Longing possesses my heart and my mind; Break down all barriers that hinder our union, Draw me to Thee, O Redeemer most kind! Show me right plainly my need that is crying, Show Thou the depth of my sins unto me! That unto sin I may daily be dying And in the Spirit live only to Thee. 2 Quicken my soul thro' Thy blood and Thy merit, That I the work of Thy Spirit may prove! Captive to Thee take my soul and my spirit, Lead me and draw me, lo, fainting I rove! Fain I from self and all idols would sever, When but Thyself in my soul mightest dwell With that Thy peace which endureth forever-- Peace that all sorrows and conflicts doth quell. 3 Oh, who could fully make this his endeavor: Self to surrender with heart and with soul! Oh, that my all were my Jesus for ever, I am, alas, far away from my goal! Jesus, who gav'st me an ear that is heeding, Reach me Thy hand and Thy succor me give, That I here after that life may be leading Which Thy true Christians in holiness live.

Break Thou all barriers that hinder our union, Draw me to Thee and my spirit control.
