Christ in Song ‎#411

411. My Need, And Thy Love

1 O Father, I have naught to plead
In earth beneath or heav'n above,
But just my own exceeding need,
And thy exceeding love.

2 The need will soon be past and gone,
Exceeding great, but quickly o'er;
Thy love unbought is all thine own,
And lasts forevermore.
