Alone with thee, my Saviour,
Before the mercy-seat,
Where thou art ever waiting
Thy faithful ones to meet.
A holy calm is mine,
A sacred peace divine.
A giving up of all I have
To be forever thine,
To be forever thine.
Alone with thee, my Saviour,
And thou dost come so near
That in my soul's communing
Thy very tones I hear.
A holy calm is mine,
A sacred peace divine.
A giving up of all I have
To be forever thine,
To be forever thine.
Alone with thee, my Saviour,
The world shut out from sight,
I float amid the sunshine
Of heaven's transcendent light.
A holy calm is mine,
A sacred peace divine.
A giving up of all I have
To be forever thine,
To be forever thine.
My heart is growing stronger,
My toil will sweeter be,
For thou thyself hast taught me
To cast my care on thee.
A holy calm is mine,
A sacred peace divine.
A giving up of all I have
To be forever thine,
To be forever thine.
