MY heart is resting, O my God, I will give thanks and sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. |
|||
2 | Now the frail vessel Thou hast made No hand but Thine shall fill; The waters of the earth have failed, And I am thirsty still. |
||
3 | I thirst for springs of heavenly life, And here all day they rise; I seek the treasure of Thy love, And close at hand it lies. |
||
4 | Now a ‘new song’ is in my mouth To long-loved music set: Glory to Thee for all the grace I have not tasted yet! |
||
5 | I have a heritage of joy That yet I must not see; The hand that bled to make it mine Is keeping it for me. |
||
6 | My heart is resting on Thy Truth, Who hath made all things mine; That draws my captive will to Thee, And makes it one with Thine. |
