ON A JOURNEY.
Saviour, who ready art to hear,
(Readier than I to pray,)
Answer my scarcely utter'd prayer,
And meet me on the way.
(Readier than I to pray,)
Answer my scarcely utter'd prayer,
And meet me on the way.
Talk with me, Lord: Thyself reveal,
While here o'er earth I rove;
Speak to my heart, and let it feel
The kindling of Thy love:
While here o'er earth I rove;
Speak to my heart, and let it feel
The kindling of Thy love:
With Thee conversing, I forget
All time, and toil, and care;
Labour is rest, and pain is sweet,
If Thou, my God, art here.
All time, and toil, and care;
Labour is rest, and pain is sweet,
If Thou, my God, art here.
Here then, my God, vouchsafe to stay,
And make my heart rejoice;
My bounding heart shall own Thy sway,
And echo to Thy voice.
And make my heart rejoice;
My bounding heart shall own Thy sway,
And echo to Thy voice.
Thou callest me to seek Thy face—
'Tis all I wish to seek,
To' attend the whispers of Thy grace,
And hear Thee inly speak.
'Tis all I wish to seek,
To' attend the whispers of Thy grace,
And hear Thee inly speak.
305
Let this my every hour employ,
Till I Thy glory see,
Enter into my Master's joy,
And find my heaven in Thee.
Till I Thy glory see,
Enter into my Master's joy,
And find my heaven in Thee.
