MHB 112 – BLESS the Christ of God;

Methodist-Hymns-112

1: BLESS the Christ of God;
I rest on love divine,
And with unfaltering lip and heart,
I call the Saviour mine.

2: His cross dispels each doubt:
I bury in His tomb
Each thought of unbeliever and fear,
Each lingering shade of gloom.

3: I praise the God of grace;
I trust His truth and might;
He calls me His, I call Him mine,
My God, my joy, my light.

4: In Him is only good,
In me is only ill;
My ill but draws His goodness forth,
And me He loveth still.

5: Tis He Who saveth me,
And freely pardon gives;
I love because He loveth me,
I live because He lives.

6: My life with Him is hid,
My death has passed away,
My clouds have melted into light,
My midnight into day.
