Author: T. M. T. Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.4 #81 (1894) First Line: Like Samuel of old we wait Refrain First Line: Here am I, here am I Lyrics: 1 Like Samuel of old we wait;
Thy still, small voice to hear,
Once more attune our trembling hearts;
O Holy One, draw near.
Refrain:
Here am I, here am I,
Speak, for Thy servant heareth;
Here am I, here am I,
Speak, for Thy servant heareth.
2 As days and weeks and months roll by,
And strong temptations come;
Lord, may we never miss Thy voice
And into darkness roam. [Refrain]
3 Forbid that we should be ashamed
When e’er Thy voice we hear,
To answer as did Samuel,
Without a thought of fear. [Refrain]
4 And when the call of death shall come,
And come it surely will;
May we be found in faith and love,
These words repeating still. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Like Samuel of old we wait]
Here Am I
