LyicsLord, let me never go
The way the wicked tread;
Their steps take hold on dreadful woe,
And they amongst the dead.
O call me home to thee,
Now in my youthful days;
And may my life and portion be
In the Redeemer's ways.
It is thy grace I want-
O let me taste thy love;
Methinks, O God, my soul doth pant
For pleasure from above.
O Jesus let me know
Thy kingdom in my soul;
Thy grace can save from future woe,
And all my fears control.
O shall I ever be,
Among the christians blest?
O Jesus, take me now to thee,
And give my spirit rest.
Then in the realms above,
My God I shall adore;
Forever solace in his love,
And grieve and sin no more.
