Oh Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go 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
My richer, fuller be.
Oh light that followest all my way
I yield my flick'ring torch to Thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray
That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.
Oh joy that seekest me through pain
I cannot close my heart to Thee
I trace the rainbow thro' the rain
and feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be.

Oh cross that liftest up my head
I dare not ask to fly from Thee
I lay in dust, life's glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.
