O Love that will not let me go,

I rest my weary soul in Thee;

I give Thee back the life I owe,

That in Thine ocean depths its flow

May richer, fuller be.

O Light that followest all my way,

I yield my flick'ring tourch to Thee;

My heart restores its borrowed ray,

That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day

May brighter, fairer be.

O Joy that seekest me thru pain,

I cannot close my heart to Thee;

I trace the rainbow thru the rain,

And feel the promise is not vain

That morn shall tearless be.
