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;
O bear me safe above,
a ransomed soul!
