O Love That Will Not Let Me Go Lyrics

O Love that will not let me go

I rest my weary soul in Thee

I give Thee back the life I owe

That in Thine ocean depths

It's flow May richer, fuller be

O Light, that follows all my way

I yield my flick'ring torch to Thee

My heart restores its borrowed ray

That in the sunshine's glow

It's day May brighter, fairer be

O Joy that sleekest me through pain

I cannot close my heart to Thee

I trace the rainbow through the rain

And feel the promise is not vain

That morn shall tearless be

O Cross that liftest up me 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
