[Verse 1]
Jesus, FRefuge of the wearC-ry,
Blest Redeemer, whom we Flove,
Fountain in life's desert Bbdrear-Fy.
Savior Bbfrom the Fworld Ca-Fbove;
O how C7oft FThine C7eyes, FoffendC-ed,
Gaze up-Gm7on the Csinner's Ffall!
Yet up-Aon the cross ex-Dmtended,
Thou didst Gmbear Cthe pain of Fall.
[Verse 2]
Do we Fpass that cross un-heedC-ing,
Breathing no repentant Fvow,
Though we see Thee wounded, Bbbleed-Fing,
See Thy Bbthrone en-Fcir-Ccled Fbrow?
Yet Thy C7sin-Fless C7death Fhath broughtC us
Life e-tGm7ernal, Cpeace, and Frest;
Only Awhat Thy grace hath Dmtaught us
Calms the Gmsin-Cner's stormy Fbreast.
[Verse 3]
Jesus, Fmay our hearts be burnC-ing
With more fervent love for FThee!
May our eyes be ever Bbburn-Fing
To Thy Bbcross of Fag-Co-Fny,
Till in C7glo-Fry C7part-Fed nevC-er
From the Gm7blessed CSavior's Fside,
Graven Ain our hearts for-Dmever,
Dwell the Gmcross, Cthe Cruci-Ffied!
