HYMN 513

H.C 326 6 8S (FE 538) 88888



1.  THEE will I love, my strength, my tower 

     Thee will I love, my joy, my crown 

     Thee will I love, with all my power

     In all Thy works, and Thee alone

     Thee will I love till sacred fire

     Fills my whole soul with pure desire.


2.  I thank Thee, uncreated Sun

     That Thy bright beams on me have shoned 

     I thank Thee, who hast overthrown

     My foes and heal’d my wounded mind

     I thank Thee, whose enlivening voice 

     Bids my freed heart in Thee rejoice.


3.  Uphold me in the doubtful race,

     Nor suffer me again to stray

     Strengthen my feet with heavenly grace 

     Still to press forward in Thy way

     That all my powers, with all their might 

     In Thy sole glory may unite.


4.  Thee will I love, my joy, my crown 

     Thee will I love, my Lord, my God; 

     Thee will I love, beneath Thy frown 

     Or smile- Thy sceptre or Thy rod 

     What though my flesh and heart decay 

    Thee shall I love in endless day.  Amen
