Bring me to thy light

Bring me to thy light
And all for which
I do delight

Cast me from this shadow
Of sin and obsession
For my false profession

May faith find me
Renewed by thy
Unchanging presence

For all I have
Oft upheld
As my own

I do so surrender
To thy throne
And claim thee

As my own
For my price
Hath paid

My life tis saved
And this not of myself
Thy death and life

Have proved
Thy love
Unmoved

From me
The least of these
And greatest of failures

Forgiven
For all my
Waywardness

So create in me
A new self
Surrender

All of once I knew
That I may oft
And only

Desire you
And you
Above all others

For whether
Any other
This life may find

Thy love alone
Divine
No other can give

So by thy power
And truth
May I live

Free of all other
Oppression
Thee alone

My one
And great
Profession
