Text: | If, Lord, thou callest me |
Author: | D. C. Addison |
Tune: | [If, Lord, Thou callest me] |
Composer: | Knowles Shaw |
1 If, Lord, Thou callest me,
Here, Lord, am I;
Where'er Thou bid'st me be,
Thither I fly;
If to Thy feast to come,
Rich with Thy presence there,
With wedding garment on
I will appear.
2 If to Gethsemane,
To scenes of woe,
Thou, Lord, e'er callest me,
Thither I go;
There, if Thou callest me,
I answer, "Here am I!"
Where'er Thou sendest me,
There would I fly.
3 Or, if to Calvary,
Leading the way,
Lord, if Thou callest me,
I will obey;
There by Thy cross to be,
There by Thy cross to die,
If Lord, Thou callest me,
"Here, Lord am I."
4 And, when this life is o'er,
Oh, blest repose!
Upward to Thee I soar,
From death who rose;
Lord, when Thou callest me,
Upward to Thee on high,
"I come, I come to Thee,"
Blissful my cry.
