Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A devotional hymn attributed to the German poet-theologian Christian Andreas Bernstein, calling believers to learn meekness and patience from Christ's own example and to fix their gaze wholly on Him, finding in His life and love the calming of the anxious soul.
Verse 1
O Patient, spotless One!
Our hearts in meekness train
To bear Thy yoke and learn of Thee,
That we may rest obtain.
Verse 2
Saviour! Thou art enough
The mind and heart to fill;
Thy life, to calm the anxious soul,
Thy love, its fear dispel.
Verse 3
O fix our earnest gaze
So wholly, Lord, on Thee,
That with Thy beauty occupied
We elsewhere none may see.
