My company before is gone, And I am left alone with Thee; With Thee all night I mean to stay, And wrestle till the break of day. 2 I need not tell Thee who I am, My misery and sin declare; Thyself hast called me by my name, Look on Thy hands, and read it there; But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou? Tell me Thy name, and tell me now. 3 In vain Thou strugglest to get free, I never will unloose my hold! Art Thou the man that died for me? The secret of Thy love unfold; Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, Till I Thy name, Thy nature know. 4 Wilt Thou not yet to me reveal Thy new, unutterable name? Tell me, I still beseech Thee, tell; To know it now resolved I am; Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, Till I Thy name, Thy nature know. 5 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! Thou diest for me! I hear Thy whisper in my heart; The morning breaks, the shadows flee, Pure, universal love Thou art: To me, to all, Thy mercies move, Thy nature and Thy name is Love. Used With Tune: CAREY'S

The days are gone when far and wide my will Drove me astray; And now I fain would climb the arduous hill, That narrow way Which leads through mist and rocks to Thine abode; Toiling for man, and Thee, Almighty God. 3. Whate’er of pain Thy loving hand allot, I gladly bear; Only, O Lord, let peace be not forgot, Nor yet Thy care, Freedom from storms and wild desires within, Peace from the fierce oppression of my sin. 4. So may I, far away, when evening falls On life and love, Arrive at last the holy, happy halls, With Thee above— Wounded yet healed, sin-laden yet forgiven, And sure Thy goodness is my only heaven. Amen. Used With Tune: LUX BEATA
