And some have found the world is vain, âYet from the world they break not free, And some have friends who give them pain, âYet have not sought a friend in thee ;
And none, Lord, have perfect rest, âFor none are wholly free from sin ; And they who fain would serve thee best âAre conscious most of wrong within.
Saviour Christ, thou too art man ; âThou hast been troubled, tempted, tried ; Thy kind but searching glance can scan âThe very wounds that shame would hide ;
Thy touch has still its ancient power, âNo word from thee can fruitless fall ; Hear, in this solemn evening hour. âAnd in thy mercy heal us all.
