1 To me, dear Saviour, yes, to me,
Speak out Thy utmost will,
What Thy great love doth bid me do,
I surely can fulfil,
What Thy great love doth bid me do,
I surely can fulfil,
What Thy great love doth bid me do,
I surely can fulfil.

Chorus:
There is not in my heart left one treasure, dear Lord,
That I would not yield gladly to Thee,
Only let, in Thy mercy, Thy pleadings be heard,
They shall gladly be answered by me.

2 To me, dear Saviour, yes, to me,
Thy gracious pardon shew,
That not one sin I've ever sinned
May unforgiven go,
That not one sin I've ever sinned
May unforgiven go,
That not one sin I've ever sinned
May unforgiven go. [Chorus]

3 To me, dear Saviour, yes, to me,
The floodgates open wide,
That even I may stoop and wash
Within the crimson tide,
That even I may stoop and wash
Within the crimson tide,
That even I may stoop and wash
Within the crimson tide. [Chorus]

4 To me, dear Saviour, yes, to me,
To me, the least of all,
With all my consciousness of guilt,
Thou hast for me a call,
With all my consciousness of guilt,
Thou hast for me a call,
With all my consciousness of guilt,
Thou hast for me a call. [Chorus]

5 To me, dear Saviour, yes, to me,
Thy saving power be given,
Then shall I know why I have lived,
And what on earth is heaven,
Then shall I know why I have lived,
And what on earth is heaven,
Then shall I know why I have lived,
And what on earth is heaven. [Chorus]
