Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-1887 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #159 (2018) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:16 Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm and changeless be,
A living fire!
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll;
Blest Savior, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul! Topics: The Assembly at Worship Prayer; Commitment/Dedication; Faith; Grief; Petition; Prayer; Sorrow Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET
