1 Let me be Thine forever,
My gracious God and Lord,
May I forsake Thee never,
Nor wander from Thy Word:
Preserve me from the mazes
Of error and distrust,
And I shall sing Thy praises
Forever with the just.

2 Lord Jesus! bounteous Giver
Of light and life divine,
Thou didst my soul deliver,
To thee I all resign;
Thou hast in mercy bought me
With blood and bitter pain:
Let me, since Thou hast sought me,
Eternal life obtain.

3 And Thou, O Holy Spirit,
My Comforter and Guide,
In my Redeemer's merit
Let ever me confide,
His holy name confessing.
Help me when death draws nigh;
Grant me Thy constant blessing,
And save me when I die.
