Savior give, oh, give me rest
For this torn and troubled breast;
Sin has bound me with its chain,
Come Thou Lamb for sinners slain.

Refrain

Savior, heal, oh, heal me now,
As before Thy throne I bow;
All my tears cannot redeem;
Plunge me in the crimson stream.

Come, oh, come, with me abide,
Let me feel Thy blood applied;
Humbly at Thy feet I bow,
In my weakness heal me now.

Refrain

If I aught withhold from Thee,
Break the bond and set me free;
Come and bid all sin depart,
Stamp Thine image on my heart.

Refrain

Now, just now, I feel the flood,
’Tis the ever precious blood;
I am Thine, and this is bliss,
’Tis Thy reconciling kiss.
