Come, O Thou Traveller Unknown,
Whom Still I Hold, But Cannot See!
My Company Before Is Gone,
And I Am Left Alone With Thee;
With Thee All Night I Mean To Stay,
And Wrestle Till The Break Of Day.
I Need Not Tell Thee Who I Am,
My Misery And Sin Declare;
Thyself Hast Called Me By My Name,
Look On Thy Hands, And Read It There;
But Who, I Ask Thee, Who Art Thou?
Tell Me Thy Name, And Tell Me Now.
In Vain Thou Strugglest To Get Free,
I Never Will Unloose My Hold!
Art Thou The Man That Died For Me?
The Secret Of Thy Love Unfold;
Wrestling, I Will Not Let Thee Go,
Till I Thy Name, Thy Nature Know.
Wilt Thou Not Yet To Me Reveal
Thy New, Unutterable Name?
Tell Me, I Still Beseech Thee, Tell;
To Know It Now Resolved I Am;
Wrestling, I Will Not Let Thee Go,
Till I Thy Name, Thy Nature Know.
What Though My Shrinking Flesh Complain,
And Murmur To Contend So Long?
I Rise Superior To My Pain,
When I Am Weak, Then I Am Strong
And When My All Of Strength Shall Fail,
I Shall With The God-Man Prevail.
