Representative Text

1 From the table now retiring,
Which for us the Lord hath spread,
May our souls, refreshment finding,
Grow in all things like our Head.

2 His example by beholding,
May our lives his image bear;
Him our Lord and Master calling,
His commands may we revere.

3 Love to God and man displaying,
Walking steadfast in his way,
Joy attend us in believing,
Peace from God through endless day!

For fuller details see Duffield's English Hymns, &c, 1886, p. 162. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)  Go to person page >
