Often I seek my Lord by Night

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.LXXI (1766) Lyrics: 1 Often I seek my Lord by Night, Jesus, my Love, my Soul's Delight; With warm Desire and restless Thought, I seek him oft, but find him not. 2 Then I arise, and search the Street, Till I my Lord, my Saviour meet; I ask the Watchmen of the Night, Where did you see my Soul's Delight? 3 Sometimes I find him in my Way, Directed by a heav'nly Ray; I leap for Joy to see his Face, And hold him fast in my Embrace. [4 I bring him to my Mother's Home, Nor does my Lord refuse to come To Sion's sacred Chambers, where My Soul first drew the vital Air. 5 He gives me there his bleeding Heart, Pierc'd for my sake with deadly Smart; I give my Soul to him, and there Our Loves their mutual Tokens share.] 6 I charge you, all ye earthly Toys, Approach not to disturb my Joys; Nor Sin, nor Hell, come near my Heart, Nor cause my Saviour to depart.
