| O Love that will not let me go
|
| I rest my weary soul in Thee
|
| I give Thee back the life I owe
|
| That in Thine ocean depths its flow
|
| May richer, fuller be
|
| O Love, that will not let me go.
|
| Oh Joy, that seekest me through pain
|
| I cannot close my heart to Thee
|
| I trace the rainbow through the rain
|
| And feel the promise is not vain
|
| That morn shall tearless be
|
| O Love, that will not let me go.
|
| Oh Cross, that liftest up my head
|
| I dare not ask to fly from Thee
|
| I lay in dust life’s glory dead
|
| And from the ground there blossoms red
|
| Life that shall endless be
|
| O Love, that will not let me go.
|
| O Love, that will not let me go. |
