Lyics

I BRING my sins to thee,

The sins I can not count,

That all may cleansed be

In thy once opened fount-

I bring them, Saviour, all to thee;

The burden is too great for me.



I bring my grief to thee,

The grief I can not tell;

No words shall needed be,

Thou knowest all so well-

I bring the sorrow laid on me,

O suffering Saviour, all to thee.



My joys to thee I bring,

The joys thy love has given,

That each may be a wing

To lift me nearer heaven-

I bring them, Saviour, all to thee,

Who hast procured them all for me.



My life I bring to thee;

I would not be my own:

O Saviour, let me be

Thine ever, thine alone-

My heart, my life, my all I bring

To thee, my Saviour and my King.
