Blest be Thy love, dear Lord,
That taught us this sweet way,
Only to love Thee for Thyself,
And for that love obey.
O Thou, our souls' chief hope !
We to Thy mercy fly ;
Where'er we are, Thou canst protect,
Whate'er we need, supply.
Whether we sleep or wake,
To Thee we both resign ;
By night we see, as well as day,
If Thy light on us shine.
Whether we live or die,
Both we submit to Thee ;
In death we live, as well as life,
If Thine in death we be.
