My Light And My Salvation

Author: Helen D. Sylvester Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8922 Refrain First Line: O Lord, my life and my salvation Lyrics: 1 My light and my salvation, O Lord of life, art Thou; Accept my consecration, To Thee I pay my vow. Thou art the King of glory, Thy love hath set me free; O sweet and blessèd story, The Savior died for me. Refrain: O Lord, my life and my salvation, I love Thee and adore; I rest on Thee, The true foundation, I rest forevermore. 2 O God of my salvation, Thou art become my song; Unceasing adoration And love to Thee belong Thro’ all the hoary ages Thy Word has still been true; Today its blessèd pages My hope and strength renew. [Refrain] 3 To all Thy kingly splendor, To Thy redeeming love, What tribute shall I render, My loyalty to prove? O Savior, high and holy, In all Thy love and might, Within my heart so lowly, Be Thou my life and light! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [My light and my salvation]
