Rule my life in every thing,
Rule my life in ev­ery­thing,
When I shall stand on the gold­en shore,
Who is so high that I’ve no path to him?
Sweet sal­va­tion full and free,
And feel my hand with­in His own.
Release my spirit! This is what I ask,
Saved by His glorious grace,

I may

Sick and sorrowing.
Sick and sor­row­ing.
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.
Who is so rich I may not pi­ty him?
Trusting in His right­eous­ness,
To do the task be­fore me laid;
How deep within myself I long have been,
When with my Lord I appear,
Nor fol­low star-di­rect­ed ways, nor tread
Dark clouds so oft­en veil the sky,
To say with joy, what­e’er be­fall,
For Christ has said there is a way,
In living echoes of Thy tone;
In liv­ing ech­oes of Thy tone;
