[1]
O my Saviour, lifted
from the earth for me,
draw me, in thy mercy,
nearer unto thee.
[2]
Lift my earth-bound longings,
fix them, Lord, above;
draw me with the magnet
of thy mighty love.
[3]
Lord, thine arms are stretching
ever, far and wide
to enfold thy children
to thy loving side.
[4]
And I come, Lord Jesus:
dare I turn away?
No, thy love hath conquered,
and I come today.
[5]
Bringing all my burdens,
sorrow, sin and care,
at thy feet I lay them,
and I leave them there.
O my Saviour, lifted
from the earth for me,
draw me, in thy mercy,
nearer unto thee.
[2]
Lift my earth-bound longings,
fix them, Lord, above;
draw me with the magnet
of thy mighty love.
[3]
Lord, thine arms are stretching
ever, far and wide
to enfold thy children
to thy loving side.
[4]
And I come, Lord Jesus:
dare I turn away?
No, thy love hath conquered,
and I come today.
[5]
Bringing all my burdens,
sorrow, sin and care,
at thy feet I lay them,
and I leave them there.
