Jehovah, Let Me Now Adore Thee

Jehovah

let me now adore Thee

For where is there a God

such

Lord

as Thou?

With songs I fain would come be­fore Thee;

O let Thy Ho­ly Spir­it teach me now

To praise Thee in His name through whom alone

Our songs can please Thee

through Thy bless­èd Son.

O Fa­ther

draw me to my Sav­ior

That Thy dear Son may draw me un­to Thee;

Thy Spir­it guide my whole be­hav­ior

And rule both sense and rea­son thus in me

That

Lord

Thy peace I taste may ne’er de­part

But wake sweet me­lo­dies with­in my heart.

O joy! our hope and trust are found­ed

On His sure Word

and witn­ess in the heart;

I know Thy mer­cies are un­bound­ed

And all good gifts Thou free­ly wilt im­part

Nay

more is lav­ished by Thou boun­te­ous hand

Than we can ask or seek or un­der­stand.

O joy! In His name we draw near Thee

Who ev­er plead­eth for the sons of men;

I ask in faith and Thou wilt hear me

In Him Thy pro­mis­es are all Amen.

O joy for me! and praise be ev­er Thine

Whose won­drous love has made such bless­ings mine!
