Sweet is Thy voice, my Sav¤iour,
Oh, let me hear Thee ¤speak,
I now in¤treat Thy fa¤vour,
Thy lov¤ing kind¤ness ¤seek.
Thou art my soul’s be¤lov¤ed,
Thy fa¤vour is my ¤life,
My strength, my shield, my buck¤ler,
To nerve me for the ¤strife.

I long to drink more deep¤ly
Of Thy un¤chang¤ing ¤love,
That love which nev¤er fail¤eth,
Sure as Thy Throne a¤¤bove,
That love which thinks no e¤vil,
Is kind and suf¤fers ¤long,
Fills all my soul with glad¤ness,
Sweet mel¤o¤dy and ¤song.

To walk with Thee, Lord Je¤sus,
Is all my soul’s de¤¤sire,
To fol¤low in Thy foot¤steps
My heart would fain as¤¤pire,
And be like Thee, more low¤ly,
Clothed with hu¤mil¤i¤¤ty,
This se¤cret source of great¤ness
And grace im¤part to ¤me.
