Lord, When I All Things Would Possess (EN 2868)

EN 2868 Lord, When I All Things Would Possess

Matt.6.20

Versi Version 1

1

Lord, when I all things would possess,

I crave but to be Thine;

O lowly is the loftiness

Of these desires divine.

2

Each gift but helps my soul to learn

How boundless is Thy store;

I go from strength to strength, and yearn

For Thee, my Helper, more.

3

How can my soul divinely soar,

How keep the shining way,

And not more tremblingly adore,

And not more humbly pray?

4

The more I triumph in Thy gifts,

The more I wait on Thee;

The grace that mightily uplifts

Most sweetly humbleth me.

5

The heaven where I would stand complete

My lowly love shall see,

And stronger grow the yearning sweet,

O Holy One! for Thee.
