Blessed Lord, I am weary of sin and the world,
And I long to find rest for my soul;
Let me dwell where thy banners of love are unfurled,
And where peace, like a river, doth roll.
I am coming, blessed Lord,
Coming with my weight of sin to thee;
Make my broken spirit whole, cleanse and purify my soul
In the all atoning blood of Calvary.
All I counted as pleasure has ended in pain,
That my soul can no longer endure;
For the treasures of earth are but fleeting and vain.
And I yearn for the real and the sure.
I am coming, blessed Lord,
Coming with my weight of sin to thee;
Make my broken spirit whole, cleanse and purify my soul
In the all atoning blood of Calvary.
Let me taste, precious Saviour, thy wonderful love,
hat my life with true joys may abound;
Fix my wavering thoughts on that kingdom above,
Where the purest of pleasures are found.
I am coming, blessed Lord,
Coming with my weight of sin to thee;
Make my broken spirit whole, cleanse and purify my soul
In the all atoning blood of Calvary.
Come and dwell in my heart, blessed Saviour, to-day,
All I have to thy will I resign;
Keep my faltering feet in the heavenward way.
And preserve me, dear Lord, ever thine.
I am coming, blessed Lord,
Coming with my weight of sin to thee;
Make my broken spirit whole, cleanse and purify my soul
In the all atoning blood of Calvary.
