Hymn 200 — O Jesus, precious Saviour,
| 200 | J. N. DARBY (1800-1882) | 7.6.7.6. |
| 1 |
O Jesus, precious Saviour, O when wilt Thou return? Our hearts, with woe familiar, To Thee, our Master turn. | |
| 2 |
Our woe is Thine, Lord Jesus; Our joy is in Thy love; But woe and joy all lead us To Thee in heav'n above. | |
| 3 |
To Thee we look, Lord Jesus, To Thee whose love we know; We wait the power that frees us From bondage, sin and woe. | |
| 4 |
We look for Thine appearing, Thy presence here to bless; We greet the day that's nearing, When all this woe shall cease. | |
| 5 |
But O for us, blest Saviour, How brighter far the lot, To be with Thee for ever, Where evil enters not! | |
| 6 |
To see Thee who hast loved us, Then face to face above, Whose grace at first had moved us To taste and know Thy love! | |
| 7 |
With Thee, O Lord, for ever Our souls shall be content; Nor act, nor thought shall ever Full joy with Thee prevent. | |
| 8 |
Thy Father's perfect favour Our dwelling place shall be; And all His glory ever Shine forth on us through Thee. | |
| 9 |
O come then soon, Lord Jesus, In patience still we wait -- Await the power that frees us -- Our longed-for heav'nly seat. | |
