Lyrics: George Matheson, 1882

lyrics

Oh Love, that wilt not let me go
I rest my weary soul in Thee
I give Thee back the life I owe
That in Thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be

Oh Light, that follows all my way
I yield my flickering torch to Thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray
That in Thy sunshine’s glow its day
May brighter, fairer be

CHORUS

Oh Love that will not let me go
I rest my weary soul, my weary soul in Thee
I give Thee back the life I owe
That in my ocean depth its flow may richer fuller be

Oh Joy, that seeks me through pain
I cannot close my heart to Thee
I trace the rainbow through the rain
And feel the promise not in vain
That morn shall tearless be

CHORUS

Oh Cross, that lifts up my head
I dare not ask to hide from Thee
I lay in dust life’s glory dead
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be

CHORUS

May brighter fairer be
That morn shall tearless be
Life shall endless be
