Lord Jesus, br Oh, ease us br Of Self that oppresses, br Annoys and distresses br Body and brain br With dull pain! br Thou never, br Since ever, br Save one moment only, br Wast left, or wast lonely: br We are alone, br And make moan. br br Far parted, br Dull-hearted, br We wander, sleep-walking, br Mere shadows, dim-stalking: br Orphans we roam, br Far from home. br br Oh new man, br Sole human, br God's son, and our brother, br Give each to the other- br No one left out br In cold doubt! br br High Father, br Oh gather br Thy sons and thy daughters, br Through fires and through waters, br Home to the nest br Of thy breast! br br There under br The wonder br Of great wings of healing, br Of love and revealing, br Teach us anew br To sing true.
