1 Thou hidden love of God, whose height, Whose depth unfathom'd no man knows; I see from far Thy beauteous light, 2 Is there a thing beneath the sun Ah! tear it thence, and reign alone, 3 O hide this self from me, that I Nor let one darling lust survive; In all things nothing may I see, Nothing desire, or seek, but Thee. 4 Each moment draw from earth away My heart, that lowly waits Thy call; Speak to my inmost soul, and say, I am thy Love, thy God, thy All; To feel Thy power, to hear Thy voice, To taste Thy love, be all my choice. AMEN. 318 1 Thou hidden source of calm repose, Thou all-sufficient Love Divine, My help and refuge from my foes, 2 Secure I am if Thou art mine. Father, my all in all Thou art, In strife, my peace; in loss,my gain; My smile beneath the cold world's frown; In shame, my glory and my crown. 3 In want, my plentiful supply; In weakness, my almighty power; My light in evil's darkest hour; |
