171. My All to Thee

1 I bring my sins to thee,
The sins I cannot count,
That I may cleansed be
In thy once open'd fount;
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me:
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me.

2 My heart to thee I bring,
The heart I cannot read;
A faithless, wand'ring thing--
An evil heart indeed;
I bring it, Saviour, now to thee,
That fixed and faithful it may be.
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me.

3 I bring my grief to thee,
The grief I cannot tell,
No words shall needed be,
Thou knowest all so well;
I bring the sorrow laid on me,
O suffering Saviour, now to thee.
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me.

4 My joys to thee I bring,
The joys thy love has given,
That each may be a wing
To lift me nearer heaven;
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
Who hast procured them all for me.
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me.

5 My life I bring to thee,
I would not be my own;
O Saviour, let me be
Thine, ever thine alone:
My heart, my life, my all, I bring
To thee, my Saviour and my King.
I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,
The burden is too great for me.
