Jesus, before Thy face we fall
Our Lord, our life, our hope, our all!
For we have no where else to flee
No sanctuary, Lord, but Thee!

In Thee we every glory view,
Of safety, strength, and beauty too:
It is all our rest and peace to see
Our sanctuary, Lord, in Thee!

Whatever foes or fears betide,
In Thy blest presence we may hide;
And while we rest our souls on Thee,
Thou wilt our Sanctuary be!

Through time, with all its changing scenes,
Through all the grief that intervenes,
This shall support each fainting heart
That Thou our Sanctuary art!
