Representative Text

1 O soul, without a Savior,
O body, tired and worn;
Behold the Light of Ages,
And night will turn to morn,
Behold the Lights of Ages,
And night will turn to morn.

2 O soul, without a Savior,
One thing thou lackest still,
For not a thousand pleasures
Thy empty heart can fill,
For not a thousand pleasures
Thy empty heart can fill.

3 O soul, make whole in Jesus,
Thy life is filled with song,
Because for ev’ry burden
There is a Savior strong,
Because for ev’ry burden
There is a Savior strong.
