mfTHOU, to Whose all-searching
sight

The darkness shineth as the light,
Search, prove my heart; it pants for
Thee;

O, burst these bands, and set it free!
mf 2 Wash out its stains, refine its dross;
Nail my affections to the cross;
Hallow each thought; let all within
Be clean, as Thou, my Lord, art clean.
mp3 If in this darksome wild I stray,

Be Thou my Light, be Thou my Way; cr No foes, no violence I fear,

No fraud, while Thou, my God, art near.

mp4 When rising floods my soul o'erflow, When sinks my heart in waves of woe, cr Jesu, Thy timely aid impart,

And raise my head, and cheer my heart.

mf 5 Saviour! where'er Thy steps I see, cr Dauntless, untired, I follow Thee: O let Thy hand support me still, And lead me to Thy holy hill !

mf 6 If rough and thorny be the way

My strength proportion to my day;
cr Till toil, and grief, and pain shall cease
Where all is calm and joy and peace.
Amen.
