406   Love Consecrates the Humblest Act




[1]
Love consecrates the humblest act
And haloes mercy s deeds;
It sheds a benediction sweet
And hallows human needs.

[2]
When in the shadow of the cross
Christ knelt and washed the feet
Of His disciples He gave us
A sign of love complete.

[3]
Love serves and willing stoops to serve;
What Christ in love so true
Has freely done for one and all
Let us now gladly do!
