O Lord, my heart I give Thee
My innermost thoughts are Thine
My lips shall praise Thee freely
Abounding with joy divine!
Upon Thy radiant glory
My open eyes fix their gaze:
O let me ever tarry
And ever stand here, amazed!
Thou art the King, eternal
The only wise God of all,
Beheld by every angel
Who ever before Thee fall
In love and deep contrition
To Thy throne of grace I draw:
And bow in whole submission
Enraptured and filled with awe.
Thou hast become my portion,
My fortress, my rock and shield,
The fount of my salvation,
My surety, hope and seal!
In Thee is boundless treasure:
An endless supply of grace,
All blessings without measure
Abide in Thy Holy Place!
My heart shall wait upon Thee
To pour Thy refreshing stream;
in quietness I seek Thee,
If Thou would but send a beam!
Without Thee, I would perish
And die in a broken place.
O how my soul doth cherish
A glimpse of Thy wondrous face!
All worship, love and blessing
And unceasing hymns of praise
All gratitude and offering
That every good heart can raise
be to my God the Father
And also to Christ the Son
And to the Holy Spirit:
The wonderful Three-in-One!
