Lyics

I BRING my sins to Thee,

The sins I can not count,

That all may cleansed be

In Thy once open'd 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 suff'ring Saviour, all to Thee.



My joys to Thee I bring,

The joys Thy love has giv'n,

That each may be a wing

To lift me nearer heav'n;

I bring Them, Saviour, all to Thee,

Who hast procur'd 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.
