O Son of Man,
our Hero strong and tender,
Whose servants are
the brave in all the earth,
Our living sacrifice
to Thee we render,
Who sharest all our sorrows,
all our mirth.
O feet so strong to climb
the path of duty,
O lips divine that taught
the words of truth,
Kind eyes that marked
the lilies in their beauty,
And heart that kindled
at the zeal of youth.
Lover of children,
boyhood’s inspiration,
Of all mankind the Servant
and the King;
O Lord of joy
and hope and consolation,
To Thee our fears and joys
and hopes we bring.
Not in our failures only
and our sadness
We seek Thy presence,
Comforter and Friend;
O rich man’s Guest,
be with us in our gladness,
O poor man’s Mate,
our lowliest tasks attend.
