Like Thee, O Lord-how wondrous fair,
Lord Jesus, all Thy members are;
     A life divine to them is given-
     The bright inheritance of heaven.

Just as we were we came to Thee,
     As heirs of wrath and misery;
     Just as Thou art-now we are Thine,
     We stand in righteousness divine.

Just as Thou art-nor doubt, nor fear,
     Can e'er to those like Thee be near,
     O boundless love ! as Thee we're seen
     The "righteousness of God in Him."

Just as Thou art O blissful ray
     That turned our darkness into day !
     That woke us from our death of sin
     To know our perfectness in Him.

Soon, soon, 'mid joys on joys untold,
     Thou wilt this grace and love unfold,
     And worlds on worlds adoring see
     The part Thy members have in Thee.

L.M.             J. Denham Smith
