Thou Magnet of my soul!
|
|
| 1. | Thou Magnet of my soul! |
| | Let me come nearer, till |
| | The life of self pulsates no more, |
| | But is forever still. |
| 2. | Thou Sunshine of my heart! |
| | Fill Thou each crevice there, |
| | And let Thy garden yield to Thee |
| | A fragrance sweet and rare. |
| 3. | Thou Ransomer from death! |
| | Possess Thy ransomed one: |
| | Appropriate to Thine Own use |
| | The spoil that Thou hast won. |
| 4. | Thou Lord of Life and Light! |
| | I bow beneath Thy sway, |
| | And count it holy privilege |
| | Thy precepts to obey. |
| 5. | Thou Gift unspeakable! |
| | Straight from God's heart of love; |
| | I break my heart to give Thee room |
| | And thus Thy sweetness prove. |
