Father, I Stretch
Father, I stretch my hands to Thee, No other help I know; If Thou withdraw Thyself from me, Ah! whither shall I go?
What did Thine only Son endure, Before I drew my breath! What pain, what labor, to secure My soul from endless death!
O Jesus, could I this believe, I now should feel Thy power; Now my poor soul Thou wouldst retrieve, Nor let me wait one hour.
Surely Thou canst not let me die; Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com O speak, and I shall live; And here I will unwearied lie, Till Thou Thy Spirit give.
Author of faith! to Thee I lift My weary, longing eyes: O let me now receive that gift! My soul without it dies.
The worst of sinners would rejoice, Could they but see Thy face: O, let me hear Thy quickening voice, And taste Thy pardoning grace.
