1
Out of
my bondage, sorrow, and night,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into
Thy freedom, gladness, and light,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of
my sickness into Thy health,
Out of
my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of
my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
2
Out of
my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into
the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of
earth’s sorrows into Thy balm,
Out of
life’s storm and into Thy calm,
Out of
distress to jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
3
Out of
unrest and arrogant pride,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into
Thy blessed will to abide,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of
myself to dwell in Thy love,
Out of
despair into raptures above,
Upward
for aye on wings like a dove,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
4
Out of
the fear and dread of the tomb,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into
the joy and pleasure, Thine own,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of
the depths of ruin untold,
Into
the flock Thy love doth enfold,
Ever
Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Lyrics: William
True Sleeper (1819-1904)
