Jesu, meek and lowly,
Savior, pure and holy,
On Thy love relying
Hear me humbly crying.
Prince of life and power,
My salvation’s tower,
On the cross I view Thee
Calling sinners to Thee.
There behold me gazing
At the sight amazing;
Bending low before Thee,
Helpless I adore Thee.
By Thy red wounds streaming,
With Thy life blood gleaming,
Blood for sinners flowing
Pardon free bestowing;
By that fount of blessing,
Thy dear love expressing,
All my aching sadness
Turn Thou into gladness.
Lord, in mercy guide me,
Be Thou e’er beside me;
In Thy ways direct me;
’Neath Thy wings protect me.
---Alternative verses---
Jesu, meek and lowly,
Savior, pure and holy,
On Thy love relying
Come to thee flying.
See the red wounds streaming,
With Christ's life blood gleaming,
Blood for sinners flowing
Pardon free bestowing;
Fountains rich in blessing,
Christ's fond love expressing,
Thou my aching sadness
Turnest into gladness.
