Lord! to Thee my heart ascending
For Thy mercy full and free,
Thankful sings for grace transcending,
Grace vouchsafed to sinful me,
Even me.
Holy Father! who with yearning
Of eternal love didst see
Hatred in my bosom burning,
Thou didst give Thy Son for me,
Even me.
Precious Saviour! great Redeemer!
Praise, eternal praise to Thee;
Though so long a wand’ring sinner.
Thou hast kindly welcomed me,
Even me.
But I’m lost in joyful wond’ring,
And I say, “O can it be
That there will be no more sund’ring
‘Twixt my blessèd Lord and me?
Even me.
Can it be that I, an alien,
Now, a child shall ever be?
Can it be that, all forgiven,
Glory is prepared for me?
Even me.”
Yes! for Jesus liveth ever,
And His blood hath made me free;
From His love no foe can sever,
For He gave Himself for me,
Even Me.
Lord! I thank Thee for salvation,
Grace so mighty and so free;
Take my all in consecration,
Glorify Thyself in me,
Even me.
