1 From yonder cross what beams divine
Of peace, and hope, and mercy shine,
Oh, be each blessed promise mine;
I come, dear Lord, to thee.
Refrain:
I come to thee, I come to thee;
Thine outstretched arms I see;
I come to thee, I come to thee,
Dear Lord, who died for me.
2 Thy kind, inviting voice I know;
Thy wounded hands new life bestow;
Those hands will never let me go;
I come, dear Lord, to thee. [Refrain]
3 As seeks the weary bird its nest
When sunset lingers in the west,
So now, for pardon, healing, rest,
I come, dear Lord, to thee. [Refrain]
4 ‘Midst pressing care and daily need
Thy overruling love I read,
For help, thy “present help,” I plead;
I come, dear Lord, to thee. [Refrain]
5 In weakness be my mighty Tower,
My Refuge in temptation’s hour;
My brightest joy when blessings shower;
I come, dear Lord, to thee. [Refrain]
