Lyics

And must I part with all I have,

My dearest Lord, for thee?

It is but right, since thou hast done

Much more than this for me.



Yes, let it go - one look from thee

Will more than make amends,

For all the losses I sustain

Of credit, riches, friends.



Ten thousand worlds, ten thousand lives,

How worthless they appear,

Compar'd with thee, supremely good,

Divinely bright and fair!



Saviour of souls, could I from thee

A single smile obtain,

Tho' destitute of all things else,

I'd glory in my gain.
