I am the Lord’s!
O Joy beyond expression,
O sweet response
to voice of love, divine;
Faith’s joyous Yes
to the assuring whisper,
Fear not, I have redeemed thee,
thou art Mine.
I am the Lord’s!
it hushes every murmur,
It soothes the fevered spirit to its rest;
I am the Lord’s!
it is the child’s rejoinder,
Who knows and feels
the Father’s will is best.
I am the Lord’s!
O eagerly and gladly,
Triumphantly and gratefully we sing;
I am the Lord’s! it is the rock unfailing
To which our storm-tossed souls
in danger cling.
I am the Lord’s!
yet teach me all it meaneth,
All it involves of love and loyalty,
Of holy service,
full and glad surrender,
And unreserved obedience unto Thee.
I am the Lord’s! yes;
body, soul and spirit;
They’re sealed,
and irrecoverably Thine;
As Thou, belovèd,
in Thy grace and fulness
For ever and for evermore art mine.
