Tis thy Savior, hear his word; | |||
Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee; | |||
Say, poor sinner, lovest thou me? | |||

:Hark! hark! Tis the voice of my Savior and Lord; | |||
:He calls unto me, | |||
:Poor sinner, come! | |||
2. I delivered thee when bound, | |||
And, when wounded, healed thy wound; | |||
Sought thee wand’ring, set thee right, | |||
Turned thy darkness into light.}} | |||

Cease, towards the child she bare? | |||
Yes, she may forgetful be, | |||
Yet will I remember thee. | |||
4. Mine is an unchanging love; | |||
Higher than the heights above; | |||
Deeper than the depths beneath, | |||
Free and faithful, strong as death. | |||

When the work of grace is done; | |||
Partner of my throne shalt be, | |||

Yet I love thee and adore, | |||
Oh for grace to love thee more!}} | |||
