HALLGRIM PETURSSON'S DEATH-BED HYMN

Author: Hallgrim Petursson; Charles Venn Pilcher Hymnal: Passion-Hymns of Iceland, The #14 (1913) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Hymnal Title: Passion-Hymns of Iceland, The First Line: Come, Lord, Thyself with Thine abounding grace Lyrics: Come, Lord, Thyself with Thine abounding grace; Mine utmost depth of need Thine eyes can trace: Thou, Lord, through life's long way my Guard and Guide; Let not Thy pilgrim's last tired footsteps slide. Upon my sight dark dawns the rising day; Faint fall the sounds of earth, and far away: None, none can aid; by death's lone, narrow door, I pass beyond man's help for evermore. None, none can aid but Thou, Almighty Lord; I stay me on Thine everlasting Word; Let earth decay, heaven's far-flung glories pale, Jehovah's plighted word can never fail. Within the Eternal Arms I sink to rest, Washed in the stream that flowed from Jesus' breast: The life Thou gavest, Father, now defend; Into Thine Hands my spirit I commend. Let the last psalm my dying voice can raise, Extol Thy loving-kindness, hymn Thy praise: Let the first notes my wakening lips can frame Amid the eternal glory, laud Thy Name. First, midst, and last, through that unclouded day, I would my Saviour's boundless grace display, And swell the anthems of the ransomed host, Adoring Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Languages: English
