As Jacob did in days of old

Hymnal: A Selection of Christian Hymns #47 (1818) Lyrics: 1 As Jacob did in days of old, So will my soul do now; Wrestle, and to my Jesus hold, Nor will I let him go. 2 Like Jacob, I am weak and faint, And overwhelmed with wo: Lord, hear and pity my complaint. For I'll not let thee go. 3 I come, encouraged by thy word, That mercy thou wilt show; Except thou bless me, dearest Lord, I will not let thee go. 4 1 come to ask forgiveness free, Tho' I have been thy foe; Except thou grant it, Lord, to me, I will not let thee go. 5 I come to open all my wounds, My sorrows and my wo; Except thy healing grace abound, I will not let thee go. 6 I come to tell thee all my fears. And conflicts here below; Except thy mercy, Lord, appears, I will not let thee go. 7 I come thy promises to plead, Where love and mercy flow; Except thou bless my soul indeed, I will not let thee go. 8 I come to give thee this vile heart, Which sin has mangled so; Except salvation thou impart, I will not let thee go. 9 Thus will I wrestle while I live A pilgrim here below; And when in glory I arrive, I will not let thee go.
