Lyrics: 1 Do not I love thee, O my Lord? Behold my heart and see: And turn each cursed idol out, That dares to rival thee. 2 Do not I love thee from my soul? Then let me nothing love: Dead be my heart to every joy, When Jesus cannot move. 3 Is not thy name melodious still To my attentive ear? Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound My Savior's voice to hear? 4 [Hast thou a lamb in all thy flock, I would disdain to feed? Hast thou a foe, before whose face I fear thy cause to plead? 5 Would not mine ardent spirit vie With angels round the throne, To execute thy sacred will, And make thy glory known? 6 Would not my heart pour forth its blood In honor of thy name? And challenge the cold hand of death To damp th' immortal flame?] 7 Thou know'st I love thee, dearest Lord, But Oh! I long to soar Far from the sphere of mortal joys, And learn to love thee more. Scripture: John 21:15
