Tell Me, Jesus

Tell me

Je­sus

tell me now

While to Thee I hum­bly bow

Wilt Thou take this heart of mine

And for­ev­er seal it Thine?

Wilt Thou come

and there ab­ide

While I see Thy op­ened side;

Pouring forth the streams of life

Giving strength and end­ing strife?

If I yield my­self to Thee

Wilt Thou come di­rect to me

And with­in Thy lov­ing arms

Cause my heart to feel Thy charms?

Wilt Thou

oh

my pre­cious Lord

Give me com­fort by Thy Word

By Thy truth great joy im­part

To my poor and throb­bing heart?

Hark! I hear my Sav­ior say

Come

My child

oh

come this way;

Take My hand and walk with Me

In the path I trod for thee;

Look by faith and see the blood

Sprinkled on the thor­ny road;

See

My child

each step I trod

Brings thee near­er to thy God.

Give thy heart

thy­self

to Me

Give whate’er I ask of thee;

Yield up all with­out re­straint

Free from mur­mur or com­plaint;

Then I’ll take that heart of thine

And with per­fect love di­vine

Make it new and pure with­in

Spotless from all in­bred sin.
