76- O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go

God the Father: Love of God

1

  • O Love that wilt not let me go,
  • I rest my weary soul in Thee;
  • I give Thee back the life I owe,
  • That in Thine ocean depths its flow
  • May richer, fuller be.

2

  • O Light that followest all my way,
  • I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
  • My heart restores its borrowed ray,
  • That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day
  • May brighter, fairer be.

3

  • O Joy that seekest me through pain,
  • I cannot close my heart to Thee;
  • I trace the rainbow through the rain,
  • And feel the promise is not vain
  • That morn shall tearless be.

4

  • O Cross that liftest up my head,
  • I dare not ask to fly from Thee;
  • I lay in dust life's glory dead,
  • And from the ground there blossoms red
  • Life that shall endless be.
