Humility

Verse 1

Humility, thou secret vale, Unknown to proud in heart; Where show’rs of blessing never fail, And glories ne’er depart.

Chorus

Oh, make thy blest abode with me, Thou angel of the sky; If I may ever dwell with thee, My soul shall never die.

Verse 2

Humility, how pure thy place! Thou seat of holiness! Thou door of entrance into grace And everlasting bliss!

Verse 3

Humility, how calm the breast That knows thy peace sublime! Within thy courts our perfect rest Grows sweeter all the time.

Verse 4

Humility, thou shoreless sea Of perfect love so deep! Thy crystal waters cover me, My helpless soul to keep.
