Hymn Context Compare
And with the sense of sin for­giv’n,
My soul with strength di­vine;
For such a life to be more meet
Rise ev­ery soul in Je­sus’ name,
In ev­er­last­ing pomp to reign:
But there’s nob­ler rest ab­ove;
But joy com­eth in the morn­ing!
Is to serve Thee well,
Our loud ho­san­nas rise;
Till self shall die in pure de­sire,
Draw me clos­er, Lord, to Thee,
Only for Thee.
Within Thy Church, Lord Je­sus,
Send us a Sav­ior, for our al­tar fires
Whom have I, Lord, in Heav­en but Thee,
To nob­ler joys, than na­ture gives,
To Thee our­selves we give.
That sing Im­man­uel’s praise on high,
The oth­er to lead up the path­way,
But there’s a nob­ler rest ab­ove.

And all my days be Thine.
Each id­ol cast from out my mind,
The won­ders of His love pro­claim,
Contending for your na­tive place,
With ar­dent love and strong de­sire.
God’s own coun­sel stand­eth sure;
E’er with Thee to dwell.
To man­sions in the skies.
end
To dis­cov­er in Thy­self
Only for Thee.
To see Thy Spir­it’s ho­ly light
Cleansed from our sin, from wrath di­vine set free,
And, hav­ing Thee, on earth is naught
Since Thou, the ev­er­last­ing God,
For all Thy mer­cy’s store;
With joy to swell the chor­us of the sky.
One of­fers thee earth­ly en­chant­ments,
With ar­dent pangs of strong de­sire.
