I love the Lord: he lent an ear
When I for help implored;
He rescued me from all my fear;
Therefore I love the Lord.
Return, my soul unto thy rest;
From God no longer roam:
His hand hath bountifully blest;
His goodness called thee home.
What shall I render unto thee,
My Saviour, in distress,
For all thy bene?ts to me,
So great and numberless?
This will I do, for thy love’s sake,
And thus thy power proclaim:
Salvation’s sacred cup I‘ll take,
And call upon thy name.
Thou God of covenanted grace!
Hear and record my vow,—
While in thy courts seek thy face,
And at thine altar bow.
Henceforth myself to thee I give,
With single heart and eye,
To walk before thee while I live,
And bless thee when I die.
