Oh, love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in you.
I give you back the life I owe, that I may always be with you.
That in your ocean depths its flow may richer, fuller be.
Oh, light that follows me all the way, I yield my flickering torch to you.
My heart restores its borrowed ray, that in your sun shines blaze its day may
brighter, fairer be.
Oh, love that seeks me through pain, I cannot close my heart to you.
I claim your promise through the pain, I trace the rainbow through the rain and
feel the promise is not vain, that morn shall tearless be.
Oh, cross that lifted up my head, I dare not ask to fly from you.
I lay in dust life's glory dead and from the ground there blossoms red, life
that shall at last be.
Oh, love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in you.
I give you back the life I owe, that I may always be with you.
