O Love That Will Not Let Me Go

O love that will not let me go

I rest my weary soul in thee

I give thee back the life I owe

That in thine oceans depths its flow

May richer, fuller be

O light that foll'west all my way

I yield my flickering torch to thee

My heart restores its borrowed ray

That in thy sunshine's blaze its day

May brighter, fairer be

O joy that seekest me through 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
