36 My faith looks up to thee
[V1]
My faith looks up to thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary, Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day Be wholly thine.

Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day Be wholly thine.
[V2]
May thy rich grace impart,
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As thou hast died for me, O, may my love
To thee, Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.

To thee, Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
[V3]
While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread.
Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day Wipe sorrow’s Tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From thee aside.
While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread.
Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day Wipe sorrow’s Tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From thee aside.
