O Love, that wilt not let me go

O 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 May richer, fuller be O Light, that followest all my way I yield my flickering torch to thee My heart restores its borrowed ray That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day My brighter, fairer be O Joy, that seekest 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 that tearless be O 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 Lyrics: George Matheson, 1882 Music: Albert L. Peace, 1884

O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head

O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head Our load was laid on Thee Thou stoodest in the sinner's stead Didst bear all ill for me A Victim led, Thy blood was shed Now there's no load for me Death and the curse were in Thy cup O Christ, 'twas full for Thee But Thou hast drained the last dark drop 'Tis empty now for me That bitter cup, love drank it up Now blessing's draught for me Jehovah lifted up His rod O Christ it fell on Thee You wast so stricken of Thy God There's not one stroke for me Thy tears, Thy blood, beneath it flowed Thy bruising healeth me The tempest's awful voice was heard O Christ, it broke on Thee Thy open bosom was my ward It braved the storm for me Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred Now cloudless peace for me Jehovah bade His sword awake O Christ, it woke 'gainst thee Thy blood the flaming blade must slake Thine heart its sheath must be All for my sake, my peace to make Now sleeps that sword for me For me, Lord Jesus Thou hast died And I have died in Thee Thou'rt ris'n — my hands are all untied And now Thou liv'st in me When purified, made white and tried Thy glory, then for me Lyrics: Anne R. Cousin, 1824-1906 Music: Ira D. Sankey, 1840-1908
