verse 1
G G D
O Love that wilt not let me go,

that in thine ocean depths its flow
D G D7 G
may richer, full - er be.
verse 2
G G D
O Light that followest all my way,

that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
D G D7 G
may brighter, fair - er be.
verse 3
G G D
O Joy that seekest me through pain,
D7 D D7
I cannot close my heart to thee;

and feel the promise is not vain,
D G D7 G
that morn shall tearless be.
verse 4
G G D
O Cross that liftest up my head,
D7 D D7
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
G B Em
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
A7 G
and from the ground there blossoms red
D G D7 G
life that shall endless be.
