LyicsLord, I be-lieve; thy power I own;
Thy word I would o-bey;
I wan-der com-fort-less and lone,
When from thy truth I stray.
REF.-I do be-lieve, I do be-lieve,
That Je-sus died for me;
And through his blood, his precious blood,
I shall from sin be free.
Lord, I believe; but gloomy fears
Sometimes bedim my sight;
I look to thee with prayers and tears,
And cry for strength and light.-REF.
Lord, I believe; but oft, I know,
My faith is cold and weak:
My weakness strengthen, and bestow
The confidence I seek.-REF.
Yes, I believe; and only thou
Canst give my soul relief:
Lord, to thy truth my spirit bow;
"Help thou mine unbelief."-REF.
