[My longing heart's desire]
Thou, O Lord God, art the thing that I long for.
—lxxi. 4.
My longing heart's desire
Is to its Maker known;
Thou seest it now aspire,
Jesus, to Thee alone.
The one thing necessary,
For Thee alone I pine:
On earth I only tarry
To know that Thou art mine.
Is to its Maker known;
Thou seest it now aspire,
Jesus, to Thee alone.
The one thing necessary,
For Thee alone I pine:
On earth I only tarry
To know that Thou art mine.
More than the consolation,
The Comforter I want;
O God of my salvation,
In me Thyself implant.
With infinite expansion,
My spirit pants for Thee,
And swells to be Thy mansion
Through all eternity.
The Comforter I want;
O God of my salvation,
In me Thyself implant.
With infinite expansion,
My spirit pants for Thee,
And swells to be Thy mansion
Through all eternity.
