( 1708 - 1788) Harwich 10.11.10.11 1 My God, I am Thine, What a comfort Divine, What a blessing to know that my Jesus is mine! In the heavenly Lamb Thrice happy I am: My heart it doth dance at the sound of Thy name. 2 True pleasures abound In the Rapturous sound, And whoever hath found it hath paradise found. My Jesus to know And feel His blood flow, 'Tis life everlasting, 'tis heaven below 3 My cup it runs o'er, I have comfort and power, I have pardon - what can a poor sinner have more? He can have a new heart, So as never to start From Thy paths: he may be in the world as Thou art. 4 I have faith in Thy blood, It hath brought me to God, And I in Thine image shall soon be renewed, I shall be throughly clean, And all holy within; Thine image can harbour no relics of sin. 5 He came from above Our curse to remove; He hath loved, He hath loved us, because He would love. Love moved Him to die, And on this we rely: He ahth loved, He hath loved us, we cannot tell why! 6 We all shall commend The love of our Friend, For ever beginning what never shall end. When time is no more, We still shall adore That ocean of love without bottom or shore. 7 Yet onward I haste To the heavenly feast; That, that is the fulness: but this is the taste. And this I shall prove Till with joy I remove To the heaven of heavens of Jesus's love. ******* |
