LyicsWelcome, O Saviour! to my heart;
Possess thy humble throne;
Bid every rival hence depart,
And claim me for thine own.
The world and Satan I forsake --
To thee, I all resign;
My longing heart, O Jesus! take,
And fill with love divine.
O! may I never turn aside,
Nor from thy bosom flee;
Let nothing here my heart divide --
I give it all to thee.
