Jesus, Lord to thee I come

Representative Text

1 Jesus, Lord, to thee I come,
For thy word has said I may;
Most unworthy tho' I am,
Thou wilt take my sin away.
Jesus, Lord, I turn to thee,
For thy word is all divine;
Every promise may I see,
May I feel and know it mine.

2 Jesus, Lord, I wait for thee,
Wait thy joy and peace to know;
Grant those precious joys to me,
Which none other can bestow.
Jesus, Lord, I will obey--
To thy gospel will I bow,
I no longer will delay;
Thou wilt save and bless me now.
