Thou Only Sovereign Of My Heart,
My Refuge, My Almighty Friend
And Can My Soul From Thee Depart,
On Whom Alone My Hopes Depend?
Whither, Ah! Whither Shall I Go,
A Wretched Wanderer From My Lord?
Can This Dark World Of Sin And Woe
One Glimpse Of Happiness Afford?
Eternal Life Thy Words Impart;
On These My Fainting Spirit Lives;
Here Sweeter Comforts Cheer My Heart,
Than All The Round Of Nature Gives.
Let Earth’s Alluring Joys Combine;
While Thou Art Near, In Vain They Call!
One Smile, One Blissful Smile Of Thine,
My Dearest Lord, Outweighs Them All.
Thy Name My Inmost Powers Adore;
Thou Art My Life, My Joy, My Care;
Depart From Thee’tis Death’tis More
’Tis Endless Ruin, Deep Despair!
Low At Thy Feet My Soul Would Lie;
Here Safety Dwells, And Peace Divine;
Still Let Me Live Beneath Thine Eye,
For Life, Eternal Life, Is Thine.
