Tune: Stuttgart
('Earth has many a noble city')
***********
Jesus, you my Saviour, I will
Praise you and extol you still
My Redeemer, you save from sin
Your Spirit me dwells within
Partakers of New Covenant
That you have from heaven sent
Forgiveness, eternal life for
All who will turn to you sure
I cannot myself save, but you
Make possible all things new
Paying price for my salvation
And to all of each nation
Taking on the cross my place there
In all human life you share
God the Father's justice it be
Satisfied there, true I see
And the hope of resurrection
Through you, you the risen Son
Help us go, share, evangelise
Ever more to the high prize
The prize of knowing you fully
Changed into your image be
Christ, by your Spirit's great power
Show me more of you each hour
