1. My Redeemer, let me be | |||
Quite happy at thy feet, | |||
Still to know myself and thee, | |||
Be this my bitter sweet: | |||
Look upon my infant state, | |||
And with a Father's yearning bless; | |||
Don't thy ransomed child forget, | |||
Nor leave me in distress. | |||
2. I have foolishly abused | |||
My Savior's bleeding love; | |||
All thy gifts, my God, misused, | |||
When by temptation drove: | |||
Justly I deserved to be | |||
Forsaken by my Lord and God; | |||
Yet shall justice plead for me, | |||
For whom thou shed thy blood.}} | |||

{{Text|Simple| | |||
3. Thy blest smiles, my gracious Lord, | |||
Shall cheer my drooping heart; | |||
I'm instructed in thy word, | |||
That thou unchanging art: | |||
Draw me to the depth profound | |||
Of all thy sorrows, blood and sweat, | |||
Passing on, through every wound, | |||
Unto thy mercy seat. | |||
4. There, reclining on thy breast, | |||
The eternal sabbath find; | |||
Proving in thee perfect rest | |||
To my poor laboring mind; | |||
Waiting till my Lord I see, | |||
And be like him forever pure, | |||
At the heavenly jubilee, | |||
This bliss to me is sure.}} | |||
