Revelation S. M.

O What, if We are Christ's

SAMUEL GEE

I. O

what, if we are Christ's, Is earth-ly shame or

loss?

Bright shall the crown of glory be, When we have borne the cross.

2

Keen was the trial once,

Bitter the cup of woe,

When martyred saints, baptized in blood,

Christ's sufferings shared below.

3

Bright is their glory now,

Boundless their joy above,

Where, on the bosom of their God,
They rest in perfect love.

4

Lord! may that grace be ours;

Like them in faith to bear
All that of sorrow, grief, or pain,
May be our portion here.

5

Enough, if Thou at last

The word of blessing give,
And let us rest beneath Thy feet,
Where saints and angels live!

6

All glory, Lord, to Thee,

Whom heaven and earth adore;
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
One God for evermore. Amen.

A-men.

When the troubled, seek - ing peace, On Thy name shall call;

Teach us to feel the sins we own, And hate what we de-plore. A-men.

2

Our broken spirits pitying see;

True penitence impart;

Then let a kindling glance from Thee

Beam hope upon the heart.

3

When we disclose our wants in prayer,

May we our wills resign,

And not a thought our bosoms share

Which is not wholly Thine.

4

May faith each weak petition fill,

And waft it to the skies,

And teach our hearts 'tis goodness still

That grants it or denies. Amen.
