My company before is gone, And I am left alone with Thee; With Thee all night I mean to stay, And wrestle till the break of day. 2 I need not tell Thee who I am, My misery and sin declare; Thyself hast called me by my name, Look on Thy hands, and read it there; But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou? Tell me Thy name, and tell me now. 3 In vain Thou strugglest to get free, I never will unloose my hold! Art Thou the man that died for me? The secret of Thy love unfold; Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, Till I Thy name, Thy nature know. 4 Wilt Thou not yet to me reveal Thy new, unutterable name? Tell me, I still beseech Thee, tell; To know it now resolved I am; Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, Till I Thy name, Thy nature know. 5 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! Thou diest for me! I hear Thy whisper in my heart; The morning breaks, the shadows flee, Pure, universal love Thou art: To me, to all, Thy mercies move, Thy nature and Thy name is Love. Used With Tune: CAREY'S

Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life

Author: Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 386 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Presence of Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, where sound the cries of clan and race, Above the noise of selfish strife, O Christ, we hear your voice of grace. 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, on shadowed thresholds fraught with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, we catch the vision of your tears. 3 From tender childhood's helplessness, from human grief and burdened toil, From famished souls, from sorrows' stress, we know your heart does not recoil. 4 The cup of water given for you still holds the freshness of your grace; Yet long these multitudes to view the deep compassion of your face. 5 O Savior, from the mountainside, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again: 6 Till all shall learn compassion's might, And follow where your feet have trod, Till glorious from your realm of light Shall come the city of our God.
