'tis your Lord's command, And while we speak, He's near; Mark the first signal of His hand, And ready all appear. 4 Oh, happy servant he In such a posture found! He shall his Lord with rapture see, And be with honor crown'd. Languages: English

'Tis a point I long to know

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #452 (1870) Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 'Tis a point I long to know, Oft it causes anxious thought, Do I love the Lord, or no? Am I His, or am I not? 2 When I turn mine eyes within, All is dark, and vain, and wild: Fill'd with unbelief and sin, Can I deem myself a child? 3 Lord, decide the doubtful case! Thou who art Thy people's sun, Since upon Thy work of grace, If it be indeed begun. 4 Let me love Thee more and more, If I love at all, I pray: If I have not loved before, Help me to begin to-day.

Grace in the needful hour afford: Oh, steel this tim'rous heart of mine With fortitude and love divine. 5 So shall I triumph o'er my fears, And gather joys from all my tears; So shall I to the world proclaim The honors of the Christian name.

Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all Thine armies shine In robes of vict'ry through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.
