Lyics

SAVIOUR, 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 off'ring 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 pray'r;

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 wand'rer sought and won,--

Something for Thee.
