I Come to Thee

Representative Text

1 Now I come, my Lord and Savior,
Humbly kneeling at Thy feet,
Sharing in Thy richest favor,
Full salvation pure and sweet.

2 Lord, I will be Thine forever,
Unto Thee my all I give;
Keep my soul, that I may never
Shame Thy cause and sinful live.

3 Leave me not alone, my Father,
Do preserve my soul each day;
Let not Satan ever harm me,
Keep me to the end, I pray.

4 God of love, so great, eternal,
Earth has long Thy wonders told;
We shall on that morning vernal,
Thy great majesty behold.
