My faith looks up to thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior divine! Now hear me while I pray; Take all my guilt away; O let me from this day Be wholly thine. | May thy rich grace impart Strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As thou hast died for me, O may my love to thee Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire. | While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day; Wipe sorrow's tears away; Nor let me ever stray From thee aside! | When ends life's transient dream, When death's cold, sullen stream Shall o'er me roll; Blest Savior, then in love, Fear and distrust remove; O bear me safe above, A ransomed soul! | |
