Hymn 77 - "Lord, we love to trace Thy footprints"

 

Lord, we love to trace Thy footprints

Here amidst the desert sand,

Ponder o'er Thy path of suff'ring—

Wondrous heart and healing hand;

See Thy stoop to Bethlehem's manger,

Hear Thee still the raging wave,

Learn Thy love in all its fulness

At the cross and in the grave.

 

 

Lord, we bow in adoration

As we watch that stream of love;

Find its mighty tide still flowing

From Thee now as crowned above.

'Tis a love no heart can fathom,

Which to us Thou dost unfold,

Inexhaustible and boundless—

Wondrous theme that ne'er grows old
