"IT IS FINISHED."
"IT IS FINISHED."
DEAR Lord, let me recount to Thee
Some of the great things Thou hast done
For me, even me
Thy little one.
Some of the great things Thou hast done
For me, even me
Thy little one.
It was not I that cared for Thee,—
But Thou didst set Thy heart upon
Me, even me
Thy little one.
But Thou didst set Thy heart upon
Me, even me
Thy little one.
And therefore was it sweet to Thee
To leave Thy Majesty and Throne,
And grow like me
A Little One,
To leave Thy Majesty and Throne,
And grow like me
A Little One,
A swaddled Baby on the knee
Of a dear Mother of Thine own,
Quite weak like me
Thy little one.
Of a dear Mother of Thine own,
Quite weak like me
Thy little one.
Thou didst assume my misery,
And reap the harvest I had sown,
Comforting me
Thy little one.
And reap the harvest I had sown,
Comforting me
Thy little one.
Jerusalem and Galilee,—
Thy love embraced not those alone,
Thy love embraced not those alone,
