#355Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life
Hymn Display
1
Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We hear Your voice, O Son of Man.
2
From tender childhood's helplessness,
From human grief and burden toil,
From famished souls, from sorrow's stress,
Your heart has never known recoil.
3
The cup of water given for You
Still holds the freshness of Your grace;
Yet long these multitudes to view
The sweet compassion of Your face.
4
O Master, from the mountainside,
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
Among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again.
5
Till all the world shall learn Your love,
And follow where Your feet have trod;
Till glorious from Your heaven above
Shall come the city of our God.
