Lyics

Let me be with thee where thou art,

My Saviour, my eternal Rest!

Then only will this longing heart

Be fully and for ever blest!



Let me be with thee where thou art,

Where spotless saints thy name adore;

Then only will this sinful heart

Be evil and defiled no more!



Let me be with thee where thou art,

Where none can die, where none remove;

There neither death nor life will part

Me from thy presence and thy love!
