I found Him ¤whom my soul de¤lights to ¤love,
I held Him fast and would not let Him ¤go,
Un¤til He ¤fixed His dwell¤ing in my ¤heart,
The One a¤lone my soul de¤sires to ¤know.

I charge you ¤do not now dis¤turb my ¤rest.
The com¤fort of His love is rest in¤¤deed;
The Chief a¤¤mong ten thou¤sand, my be¤¤loved
A¤bun¤dant¤ly sup¤plies my souls deep ¤need.

I found Him ¤in the glad¤ness of my ¤soul,
I held Him fast, con¤strain¤ing Him to ¤stay.
My heart is ¤rav¤ished by the look He ¤gave,
And shall be, till the shad¤ows flee a¤¤way.

O, drink, Be¤¤loved, you drink a¤bun¤dant¤¤ly,
I love to hear the mu¤sic of His ¤voice,
To feel the ¤touch of His dear hand on ¤mine,
And see His face bids all my soul re¤¤joice.
