'Jesus cast a look on me' (hymn) written by John Berridge

Jesus cast a look on me,

Give me sweet simplicity

Make me poor and keep me low.

Seeking only Thee to know.


All that feeds my busy pride,

Cast it evermore aside

Bid my will to Thine submit,

Lay me humbly at Thy feet.


Make me like a little child,

Of my strength and wisdom spoiled 

Seeing only in Thy light,

Walking only in Thy might.


Leaning on Thy loving breast,

Where a weary soul can rest

Feeling well the peace of god

Flowing from His precious blood.


In this posture let me live,

And hosannas daily give

In this temper let me die

And hosannas ever cry!
