YE HUMBLE SOULS THAT SEEK THE LORD / ENYIN TI E NWA OLUWA

8. HYMN MHB 217 / Y 125 (Tune: London New) (Seed of Faith) MHB 217 Y 125 1. Ye humble souls that seek the Lord, Chase all your fears away; And bow with rapture down to see The place where Jesus lay. 2. Thus low the Lord of Life was brought, Such wonders love can do; Thus cold in death that bosom lay, Which throbbed and bled for you. 3. But raise your eyes and tune your songs; The Saviour lives again: Not all the bolts and bars of death The Conqueror could detain. 4. High o’er the angelic bands He rears His once dishonoured head; And through unnumbered years He reigns, Who dwelt among the dead. 5. With joy like His shall every saint His vacant tomb survey; Then rise with his ascending Lord To realms of endless day. Y 125 1. Enyin ti e nwa Oluwa, Ma jek’ eru ba n yin; E f’ ayo bojuwo ibi T’a ti te Jesu si. 2. Oluwa Iye di oku, Ise ife l’ eyi; Idake iku gba l’ aiya T’ o fi gbogbe fun O. 3. Gb’ oju soke, korin iyin Olugbala tun ye: Gbogbo agbara ‘ku ko to Da Asegun duro. 4. Ga ju gbogbo angeli lo L’ O gb’ ori Re soke; Enit’ o gbe arin oku, Joba aiyeraiye. 5. Awon mimo y’o ji dide Pel’ ayo bi Tire; Nwon o si b’ Oluwa goke Lo s’ aiye ailopin.
