[Jesus, Lord, I fain would stoop]

I have given you an example, that ye should, &c. —xiii. 15.

Jesus, Lord, I fain would stoop
With Thy humility,

505

Take Thy sacred burden up
And meekly follow Thee:
Lowly both in mind and deed
Thou hast a perfect pattern given;
Give me in Thy steps to tread,
And bear Thy cross to heaven.
