Representative Text

1 Lord, set me as a seal,
A seal upon thy heart,
And when the mountains reel,
And when the hills depart,
Still I shall surely feel
That you my Savior art,
Still I shall surely feel
That you my Savior art.

2 Pass earth and heav’n away,
Let heav’n and earth be past;
Thyself shall be my stay,
Thy holy word shall last
Till the eternal day,
On Jesus I am cast,
Till the eternal day,
On Jesus I am cast.

3 Life like the bitter wind,
May bruise this heart of mine,
But, oh, how good to find
The heart that is divine;
Forever thou art kind,
And I am ever thine,
Forever thou art kind,
And I am ever thine.

4 I have not waited long,
Or sought thee, Lord, in vain;
The weak thou makest strong,
Thou stillest all the pain;
Thou givest me a song,
Thy mercies still remain,
Thou givest me a song,
Thy mercies still remain.

5 Oh, thou the only wise,
Come set me as a seal;
With thy bright wings arise,
And gently bless and heal.
Before my wond’ring eyes,
Do thou thyself reveal,
Before my wond’ring eyes,
Do thou thyself reveal.
