LORD, HAST THOU NOT ONE WORD FOR ME?
1. Lord, hast Thou
not one word for me
To bind my soul
more close to Thee,
That ev'ry evil I
may flee;
One word, O Lord!
one word from Thee.
2. One word, to
show how weak am I
When in my strength
alone I try,
In vain I toil, in
vain I sigh;
One word, O Lord!
one word from Thee.
3. One word, to
show how near Thou art,
For Thou dost dwell
within my heart;
And of Thy life I
share a part;
One word, O Lord!
one word from Thee.
4. One word of
pow'r, oh, let me hear,
Above the heart's
most anxious fear,
Thy still, small
voice, yet deep and clear;
One word, O Lord!
one word from Thee.
5. One word of
final triumph, Lord;
Sweet hope Thy
promises afford,
To dwell with Thee
in sweet accord;
One word, O Lord!
one word from Thee.
