O Love that wilt not let me go
I rest my weary soul in Thee
I give Thee back the life I own
That in Thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be
I Light that follow'st all my way
I yield my flick'ring torch to Thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray
That in Thy sunshine's glow its day
May brighter, fairer be
O Joy that seekest me thro' pain
I cannot close my heart to Thee
I trace the rainbow thro' the rain
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be
| |
O Cross that liftest up my head
I dare not ask to hide from Thee
I lay in dust life's glory dead
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be
|
