Yes, Lord Jesus, I am Thine;
O, what grace! what power divine!
Purchased by Thy precious blood:
Thus I’m made “a child of God.”
Naught shall take away from me
That blest bond of unity,
Which I hold with Christ the Lord,
Since I’m made “a child of God.”
O that blessed happy thought,
To know that Jesus Christ has taught
This heart of mine to lisp and say,
“Lord Jesus, come without delay.”
Then be it so; Lord Jesus, come,
And take Thy waiting people home,
That they may there forever be
Thrice happy, blessed Lord, with Thee.
