andover - samuel babcock lyrics

my redeemer, let me be
quite happy at thy feet
still to know myself and thee
be this my bitter sweet:
look upon my infant state
and with a father’s yearning bless;
don’t thy ransomed child forget
nor leave me in distress

i have foolishly abused
my savior’s bleeding love;
all thy gifts, my god, misused
when by temptation drove:
justly i deserved to be
forsaken by my lord and god;
yet shall justice plead for me
for whom thou shed thy blood
thy blest smiles, my gracious lord
shall cheer my drooping heart;
i’m instructed in thy word
that thou unchanging art:
draw me to the depth profound
of all thy sorrows, blood and sweat
passing on, through every wound
unto thy mercy seat

there, reclining on thy breast
the eternal sabbath find;
proving in thee perfect rest
to my poor laboring mind;
waiting till my lord i see
and be like him forever pure
at the heavenly jubilee
this bliss to me is sure
