204. Out of Sadness Into Gladness

1 Out of sadness into gladness,
Saviour, Thou hast bidden me;
Into blessing, all possessing,
Out of self and into Thee.

Refrain:
Out of self and into Thee!
Lord, Thy wondrous love I see;
Let me daily farther flee,
Out of self and into Thee.

2 Out of terror, out of error,
Out of all that darkness brings,
Into union and communion
With the holy King of kings. [Refrain]

3 Out of seeming, out of dreaming,
Out of earth’s uncertainty,
Into sureness and secureness—
Out of self and into Thee. [Refrain]
