1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray; take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day Be wholly thine.
2 May thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire;
As thou hast died for me, O may my love to thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread, Be thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day; Wipe sorrow's tears away;
Nor let me ever stray From thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream
when death's cold, sullen stream
shall o'er me roll;
Blest Savior, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me save above, a ransomed soul!
