I Am His and He Is Mine

Author: George W. Robinson, 1838-1877 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 92 hymnals First Line: Loved with everlasting love Lyrics: 1. Loved with everlasting love, Led by grace that love to know; Gracious Spirit from above, Thou hast taught me it is so! O this full and perfect peace! O this transport all divine! In a love which cannot cease, I am His, and He is mine. In a love which cannot cease, I am His, and He is mine. 2. Heav'n above is softer blue, Earth around is sweeter green! Something lives in ev'ry hue Christ-less eyes have never seen: Birds with gladder songs o'er flow, Flow'rs with deeper beauties shine, Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine. Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine. 3. Things that once were wild alarms Cannot now disturb my rest; Closed in everlasting arms, Pillowed on the loving breast. O to lie forever here, Doubt and care and self resign, While He whispers in my ear, I am His, and He is mine. While He whispers in my ear, I am His, and He is mine. 4. His forever, only His; Who the Lord and me shall part? Ah, with what a rest of bliss Christ can fill the loving heart! Heav'n and earth may fade and flee, Firstborn light in gloom decline, But while God and I shall be, I am His, and He is mine. Firstborn light in gloom decline, But while God and I shall be, I am His, and He is mine. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:22 Used With Tune: EVERLASTING LOVE

Poor I was, and sought for riches, Something that would satisfy, But the dust I gathered round me Only mocked my soul's sad cry. Hallelujah! I have found Him Whom my soul so long has craved! Jesus satisfies my longings, Thro' His blood I now am saved. 4. Well of water, ever springing, Bread of life so rich and free, Untold wealth that never faileth, My Redeemer is to me. Hallelujah!

He called me long before I heard, Before my sinful heart was stirred, But when I took Him at His word, Forgiv'n, He lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. 3. His brow was pierced with many a thorn, His hands by cruel nails were torn, When from my guilt and grief forlorn, In love He lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. 4. Now on a higher plane I dwell, And with my soul I know 'tis well; Yet how or why I cannot tell He should have lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. Scripture: Titus 3:4 Used With Tune: HE LIFTED ME
