O Light of my spirit and Joy of my heart,
Thou Chief among thousands,
how lovely Thou art!
I think of Thy goodness where’er I may be,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but for Thee.
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee;
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee.
I care not for treasures that rust and decay,
I seek not for pleasures that vanish away,
Enough that my Savior my portion will be,
O loving Redeemer, I live but in Thee.
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee;
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee.
Thus far hast Thou led me,
I’ll trust Thee for all,
I know Thou wilt ever respond to my call;
I feel that Thy grace is sufficient for me,
O Savior of sinners, I live but in Thee.
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee;
I live but in Thee, I live but in Thee,
My Rock and Salvation, I live but in Thee.
