Author: S. Dryden Phelps Hymnal: Laudes Domini #318 (1890) First Line: Savior, thy dying love Lyrics: 1 Saviour, thy dying love
Thou gavest me:
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from thee:
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some offering bring thee now,
Something for thee.
2 O'er the blest mercy-seat,
Pleading for me,
My feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to thee:
Help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
Some song to raise, or prayer,
Something for thee.
3 Give me a faithful heart
Likeness to thee,
That each departing day
Henceforth may see
Some work of love begun,
Some deed of kindness done,
Some wanderer sought and won,
Something for thee.
4 All that I am and have
Thy gifts so free
In joy, in grief, through life,
Dear Lord, for thee:
And when thy face I see,
My ransomed soul shall be,
Through all eternity,
Something for thee. Topics: Conflict With Sin; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Fidelity; Love For Souls; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Fidelity; Love For Souls Languages: English
