[Lord, what have I to offer? sickening fear]
Lord, what have I to offer? sickening fear
And a heart-breaking loss.
Are these the cross Thou givest me? then dear
I will account this cross.
And a heart-breaking loss.
Are these the cross Thou givest me? then dear
I will account this cross.
If this is all I have, accept even this
Poor priceless offering,
A quaking heart with all that therein is,
O Thou my thorn-crowned King.
Poor priceless offering,
302
O Thou my thorn-crowned King.
Accept the whole, my God, accept my heart
And its own love within:
Wilt Thou accept us and not sift apart?
—Only sift out my sin.
And its own love within:
Wilt Thou accept us and not sift apart?
—Only sift out my sin.
