486   I Do Believe




[1]
Father I stretch my hands to Thee;
No other help I know;
If Thou withdraw Thyself from me
Ah whither shall I go?

[2]
On Thy dear Son I now believe
O let me feel Thy power;
And all my varied wants relieve
In this accepted hour.

[3]
Author of faith! to Thee I lift
My weary longing eyes;
O let me now receive that gift;
My soul without it dies.

[4]
Surely Thou canst not let me die;
O speak and I shall live;
And here I will unwearied lie
Till Thou Thy Spirit give.

[5]
How would my fainting soul rejoice
Could I but see Thy face!
Now let me hear Thy quickening voice
And taste Thy pardoning grace.

[6]
I do believe I now believe
That Jesus died for me
And that He shed His precious blood
From sin to set me free.
