O Jesus, Receive Me

Composer: Rufus Cornelius, 1912

Dear Lord

I’ve wan­dered far from Thee

Far from Thee

far from Thee;

Show pi­ty now and par­don me—

O save me at the cross.

O Je­sus

re­ceive me

No more will I grieve Thee

Thou pre­cious Re­deem­er

O save me at the cross.

So vile and full of sin am I

Sin am I

sin am I

But no lost soul wilt Thou de­ny—

O save me at the cross.

My brok­en heart I bring to Thee

Bring to Thee

bring to Thee

Thy heal­ing balm is rich and free—

O save me at the cross.

Dear Lord

my all I yield to Thee

Yield to Thee

yield to Thee;

Thy serv­ant I would ev­er be—

O save me at the cross.

And now I’m lean­ing hard on Thee

Hard on Thee

hard on Thee;

O wash my soul and set me free—

O save me at the cross.
