Lord, when my thoughts delighted rove
Amid the wonders of thy love,
Sweet hope revives my drooping heart,
And bids intruding fears depart.
For mortal crimes a sacrifice,
The Lord of life, the Saviour, dies!
What love! what mercy! how divine!
Jesus,—and can I call thee mine?
Repentant sorrow fills my heart,
But mingling joy allays the smart;
Oh, may my future life declare
The sorrow and the joy sincere!
Be all my heart and all my days
Devoted to my Saviour's praise;
And let my glad obedience prove
How much owe, how much I love.
