Lord Jesus, Thy great love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare:
O bend my wayward heart to Thee
And reign without a rival there;
Thine, wholly Thine, alone I’d live,
Myself to Thee entirely give.
No thought can reach, no tongue declare:

And reign without a rival there;

O Lord, how gracious is Thy way,
All fear before Thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow pass away
Where’er Thy healing beams arise;
Lord Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire apart from Thee.
In suff’ring be Thy love my peace,
In weakness be Thine arm my strength;
And when the storms of life shall cease
And Thou from heaven wilt come at length,
Lord Jesus, then this heart shall be
For ever satisfied with Thee.
