I Open Wide The Portals Of My Heart

Author: Anna Hoppe Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #203 (1930) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 I open wide the portals of my heart And bid Thee enter, precious Savior mine, O enter in, Thy riches to impart, Blest Son of God, Redeemer, Love divine. 2 Dwell Thou within and let me own Thee, Lord, To have Thee near is joy beyond compare; I feast upon the manna of Thy Word And taste the sweetness of Thy love in prayer. 3 If I have Thee, Lord Jesus, I have all: In trouble solace, courage when I fear; Strength when I faint and pardon when I fall; Rest when I'm weary, hope when death is near. 4 Thou art my sun when clouds encompass me, My health in sickness and my peace in strife; In Thee my fount of wealth and joy I see, My righteousness and my eternal life. 5 Immanuel, do Thou with me abide Till I am called to leave this house of clay; Then let my soul for aye be at Thy side And see the glory of an endless day. Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Languages: English Tune Title: LANGFORD
