Author: Lucy A. Bennett Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: I am the Lord's! O Joy beyond expression Lyrics: 1 I am the Lord’s! O Joy beyond expression, O sweet response to voice of love Divine; Faith’s joyous “Yes” to the assuring whisper, “Fear not, I have redeem’d thee, thou art Mine.” 2 I am the Lord’s! It hushes ev’ry murmur, It soothes the fever’d spirit to its rest; I am the Lord’s! It is the child’s rejoinder, Who knows and feels the Father’s will is best. 3 I am the Lord’s! It is the glad confession, Wherewith the Bride recalls the happy day, When love’s “I will” accepted Him for ever, “The Lord’s,” to love, to honour and obey. 4 I am the Lord’s! O eagerly and gladly, Triumphantly and gratefully we sing; I am the Lord’s! It is the rock unfailing To which our storm-tossed souls in danger cling. 5 I am the Lord’s! Yet teach me all it meaneth, All it involves of love and loyalty, Of holy service, absolute surrender, And unreserved obedience unto Thee. 6 I am the Lord’s! Yes; body, soul and spirit,— They’re sealed, and irrecoverably Thine; As Thou, Belovèd, in Thy grace and fulness For ever and for evermore art mine. Used With Tune: [I am the Lord's!
