174. Let Me Be Thine Forever

1 Let me be Thine forever,
My faithful God and Lord,
May I forsake Thee never
Nor wander from Thy Word:
Preserve me from the mazes
Of error and distrust,
And I shall sing Thy praises
Forever with the just.

2 Lord Jesus, bounteous Giver
Of light and life divine,
Thou didst my soul deliver,
To Thee I all resign:
Thou hast in mercy bought me
With blood and bitter pain;
Let me, since Thou hast sought me,
Eternal life obtain.

3 O Holy Ghost, who pourest
Sweet peace into my heart,
And who my soul restorest,
Let not Thy grace depart.
And, while His Name confessing
Whom I by faith have known,
Grant me Thy constant blessing,
Make me for aye Thine own.

Amen.
