Author: John Austin Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #404 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Blest be Thy love, dear Lord,
That taught us this sweet way,
Only to love Thee for Thyself,
And for that love obey.
2 O Thou, our soul's chief Hope!
We to Thy mercy fly;
What'er we are, Thou canst protect,
What'er we need, supply.
3 Whether we sleep or wake,
To Thee we both resign;
The darkest night is as the day,
If Thy light on us shine.
4 Whether we live or die,
Both we submit to Thee;
In death we live as well as life,
If Thine in faith we be. Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Christian Resolve and Holiness; Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Christian Resolve and Holiness Languages: English Tune Title: DENNIS
