O Christ, Whom We Love And Know – Hymn Lyric
O Christ, whom we may love and know,
And follow to the end,
We, who are friends together, come
To thee, our heavenly Friend.
Thou, who didst share our daily toil,
To make us good and free,
Help us to share thy fiery love
And shining purity.
Give us thy love, that loves us all,
And dared the glorious Cross,
That we may love to share and know
Each other’s joy and loss.
Give us thy purity to shield
Our souls in each dark place,
To give us wings to rise to thee,
And power to see thy face.

When we encounter challenges and difficulties, Christ’s love is there to uplift and support us. His love acts as a shield for our souls, providing strength and protection in the darkest of places. It is through him that we find the courage to face adversity and rise above it.
Furthermore, Christ’s love grants us the ability to see beyond the mundane and ordinary. It gives us wings to soar above the troubles of this world and directs our gaze towards him. With his love in our hearts, we are able to fix our eyes on his face and find hope and inspiration in his presence. His purity purifies our own souls, allowing us to connect with him on a deeper level.
So let us embrace the truth and beauty of this hymn, dear friends. As we journey through this life, we are not alone. We have a heavenly Friend in Jesus Christ, who loves us unconditionally.
