LyicsJesus, my truth, my way,
My sure unerring light,
On thee my feeble steps I stay,
Which thou wilt guide aright.
My wisdom and my guide,
My counsellor thou art;
O let me never leave thy side,
Nor from thy paths depart.
I lift mine eyes to thee,
Thou gracious bleeding Lamb,
That I may now enlightened be,
And never put to shame.
Never will I remove
Out of thy hands my cause,
But rest in thy redeeming love,
And hang upon thy cross.
Teach me the happy art,
In all things to depend
On thee; O never, Lord depart,
But love me to the end.
Still stir me up to strive
With thee in strength divine;
And every moment, Lord, revive
This fainting soul of mine.
O make me all like thee,
Before I hence remove;
Settle, confirm and 'stablish me,
And build me up in love.
Let me thy witness live,
When sin is all destroyed;
And then my spotless soul receive,
And take me home to God.
