FAITH AND CONSECRATION

My Faith Looks Up to Thee

115

(OLIVET. 6,6,4,6,6,6,4)

Ray Palmer, 1830

Lowell Mason, 1832

1. My faith looks up to thee,
   Thou Lamb of Calvary,
   Saviour divine!
   Now hear me while I pray,
   Take all my guilt away,
   O let me from this day
   Be wholly thine,
   
   
2. May thy rich grace impart
   Strength to my fainting heart,
   My zeal inspire;
   As thou hast died for me,
   O may my love to thee
   Pure, warm, and changeless be,
   A living fire,
   
   
3. While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread,
   Be thou my Guide; Bid darkness turn to day,
   Wipe sorrow's tears a way,
   Nor let me ever stray
   From thee aside,
   
   
4. When ends life's transient dream,
   When death's cold, sullen stream
   Shall o'er me roll ;
   Blest Saviour, then, in love,
   Fear and distrust remove ;
   O bear me safe above,
   A ransomed soul! Amen.
