Jesus, I sing thy matchless grace.
That calls a worm thy own—
Gives me among thy saints a place
To make thy glories known.
Allied to thee, our vital head,
We act, and grow, and thrive:
From thee divided, each is dead,
When most he seems alive.
Thy saints on earth, and those above,
Here join in sweet accord:
One body all in mutual love,
And thou our common Lord.
O may my faith each hour derive
Thy spirit with delight;
While death and hell in vain shall strive
This bond to disunite.
Thou the whole body wilt present
Before thy Father's face;
Nor shall a wrinkle or a spot
Its beauteous form disgrace.
