Hymn 365
Thee will I love, my strength
- f Thee will I love, my Strength, my tower,
Thee will I love, my joy, my crown,
Thee will I love with all my power.
In all Thy works, and Thee alone,
cr Thee will I love, till the pure fire
Fill my whole soul with chaste desire.
- mf I thank Thee, uncreated Sun,
That Thy bright beams on me have shined;
I thank Thee, who hast overthrown
My foes, and healed my wounded mind;
I thank Thee, whose enlivening voice
Bids my freed heart in Thee rejoice.
- mf Uphold me in the doubtful race,
Nor suffer me again to stray
cr Strengthen my feet with steady pace
Still to press forward in Thy way;
ff My soul and flesh, O Lord of might
Fill, satiate, with Thy heav'nly light.
- f Thee will I love, my joy, my crown.
Thee will I love, my Lord, my God
di Thee will I love, beneath Thy frown.
Or smile. Thy sceptre, or Thy rod;
p What though my flesh and heart decay?
f Thee shall I love in endless day!
Christly Living
