Saviour eternal!

Author: M. J. Blacker, 1822-88 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #502 (1986) Lyrics: 1 Saviour eternal! Health and life of the world unfailing. 2 Light everlasting! And in verity our redemption, 3 Grieving that the ages of men must perish Thro' the tempter's subtlety, 4 Still in heav'n abiding, thou cames earth-ward Of thine own great clemency: 5 Then freely and graciously Deigning to assume humanity, 6 To lost ones and perishing Gavest thou thy free deliverance, Filling all the world with joy. 7 O Christ, our souls and bodies cleanse By thy perfect sacrifice; 8 That we as temples pure and bright Fit for thine abode may be. 9 By thy former advent justify, 10 By thy second grant us liberty: 11 That when in the might of glory Thou descendest, Judge of all, 12 We in raiment undefiled, Bright may shine, and ever follow, Lord, thy footsteps blest, where'er they lead us.
