Gracious Lord, my heart is fixed;
Sing I will, and sing of Thee,
Since the cup that justice mixed,
Thou hast drunk, and drunk for me;
|: Great Deliverer, :|
Thou hast set the prisoner free.
Many were the chains
that bound me,
But the Lord has loosed them all;
Arms of mercy now surround me,
Favours these, nor few nor small;
|: Saviour, keep me, :|
Keep Thy servant lest he fall.
Fair the scene that lies before me;
Life eternal Jesus gives;
While He waves His banner o'er me,
Peace and joy my soul receives:
|: Sure His promise; :|
I shall live because He lives.
When the world would
bid me leave Thee,
Telling me of shame and loss,
Saviour, guard me, lest I grieve Thee,
Lest I cease to love Thy cross;
|: This is treasure; :|
All the rest I count but loss.
