Verse 1
Thee, Saviour, I confess
Omnipotent in grace:
True I account thee, Lord,
And faithful to thy word:
Freely thou wilt confer
Whate’er we ask in prayer,
And readier art to give
Than sinners to receive.
Verse 2
Ere with my lips I pray,
Thou know’st what I would say:
Might I be found of thee
In peace and purity,
And then my spirit give
With my dear Lord to live:
Safe on that happy shore,
I could desire no more.
