Coming Now, O Lord, to Thee!

Author: Rev. Geo. P. Hott Hymnal: Crowning Day No. 3 #91 (1898) First Line: Saviour to Thee I come Lyrics: 1 Saviour to Thee I come, Burdened with sin; Open the door I pray, O let me in! How can I longer stay, My God, from Thee; Thou art the Life, the Way, All in all to me. 2 Pleading Thy grace alone, Humbly I bow; No other help I know, Save me just now. Heal Thou my broken heart, Saviour divine; On me Thy love bestow, Make me wholly Thine. 3 Trusting Thy mercy, Lord, Night turns to day; Resting upon Thy word, Doubts flee away. Ever my path shall be Where Thou hast trod; I come, O Christ, to Thee Blessed Lamb of God. Languages: English Tune Title: [Saviour to Thee I come]
