In earnest hope I live | B |
I ask for all the precious things | C |
Thy boundless love can give | D |
I look for many a lesser light | E |
About my path to shine | F |
But chiefly long to walk with Thee | G |
And only trust in Thine | F |
- | |
In holy expectation held | H |
Thy strength my heart shall stay | I |
For Thy right hand will never let | J |
My trust be cast away | I |
Yea Thou hast kept me near Thy feet | K |
In many a deadly strife | L |
By the stronghold of hope in Thee | G |
The hope of endless life | L |
- | |
Thou knowest that I am not blest | M |
As Thou wouldst have me be | G |
Till all the peace and joy of faith | N |
Possess my soul in Thee | G |
And still I seek mid many fears | O |
With yearnings unexpressed | M |
The comforts of Thy strengthening love | P |
Thy soothing settling rest | M |
- | |
It is not as Thou wilt with me | G |
Till humbled in the dust | M |
I know no place in all my heart | M |
Wherein to put my trust | M |
Until I find O Lord in Thee | G |
The Lowly and the Meek | Q |
That fullness which Thy own redeemed | M |
Go nowhere else to seek | Q |
- | |
Then O my Savior on my soul | R |
Cast down but not dismayed | M |
Still be Thy chastening healing hand | M |
In tender mercy laid | M |
And while I wait for all Thy joys | S |
My yearning heart to fill | T |
Teach me to walk and work with Thee | G |
And at Thy feet sit still | T |
