Hymns of Consecration and Faith ‎#489

489. Oh, when shall my Soul?

1 Oh, when shall my soul find her rest,
My strugglings and wrestlings be o’er,
My heart, by my Saviour possess’d,
Be fearing and sinning no more?

Chorus:
For He is almighty, for He is almighty, almighty to save.

2 Now search me, and try me, O Lord;
Now Jesus, give ear to my cry!
See helpless I rest to Thy word,
My soul to my Saviour draws nigh. [Chorus]

3 My idols I cast at Thy feet,
My all I return Thee, who gave;
This moment the work is complete,
For Thou art almighty to save. [Chorus]

4 O Saviour, Thy word I believe,
Thy blood for my cleansing I see;
And, asking in faith, I receive
Salvation—full, present, and free. [Chorus]

5 O Lord, I shall now comprehend
Thy mercy so high and so deep;
And long shall my praises ascend—
For Thou art almighty to keep. [Chorus]
