LyicsSAVIOUR, thy dying love
Thou gavest me;
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from thee:
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some offering bring thee now-
Something for thee.
O'er the blest mercy-seat,
Pleading for me,
My feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to thee;
Help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
Some song to raise, or prayer-
Something for thee.
Give me a faithful heart-
Likeness to thee-
That each departing day
Henceforth may see
Some work of love begun,
Some deed of kindness done,
Some wanderer sought and won-
Something for thee.
