Oh, Love That Will Not Let Me Go

Oh, love that will not let me go
I rest my weary soul in thee
I give you back this life I owe
and in your ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be

Oh, light that follows all my way
I yield my flickering torch to thee
and my heart restores its borrowed ray
that in your sunshine's blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be

And rejoice, my heart! rejoice, my soul!
my Savior, God, has come to thee
Rejoice, my heart! you've been made whole
by a love that will not let me go

Oh, joy, that seeks me through the pain
I cannot close my heart to thee
I trace the rainbow through the rain
and feel the promise is not vain
that morn shall tearless be

Sing, rejoice, my heart! rejoice, my soul!
my Savior, God, has come to thee
Rejoice, my heart! you've been made whole
by a love that will not let me go
it's a love that will not let me go

Oh, cross that lifts and holds my head
I dare not ask to fly from thee
I lay in dust life's glory dead
that from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be

Rejoice, my heart! rejoice, my soul!
my Savior, God, has come to thee
And rejoice, my heart! you've been made whole
by a love that will not let me go

Oh, rejoice, my heart! rejoice, my soul!
my Savior, God, has come to thee
And rejoice, my heart! you've been made whole
by a love that will not let me go

it's a love that will not let me go
oh, love that will not let me go
