I Thank Thee, Lord

I thank Thee

Lord

that in Thy blood

My guilt is washed away;

I thank Thee that mine eyes be­hold

A bright and glo­ri­ous day;

I thank Thee

Lord

for faith to see

A world of end­less joy in Thee.

I thank Thee for a throne of grace

Where Thou dost bend Thine ear

And I may breathe my soul’s re­quest

When on­ly Thou canst hear

And hold com­mun­ion sweet with Thee

When but Thine eye be­hold­eth me.

I thank Thee for the hope of life

That looks be­yond the tomb;

I thank Thee for the light that shines

To cheer me thro’ its gloom;

And Lord

for all Thy gifts to me

My loud­est praise I give to Thee.
