Methodist-Hymns-736
1: SHEPHERD divine, our wants relieve
In this our evil day, to all Thy tempted followers give
The power to watch and pray.
2: Long as our fiery trials last,
Long as the cross we bear,
O let our souls on Thee be cast
In never-ceasing prayer!
3: The Spirit of interceding grace
Give us in faith to claim;
To wrestle till we see Thy face,
And know Thy hidden name.
4: Till Thou Thy perfect love impart,
Till Thou Thyself bestow,
Be this the cry of every heart:
I will not let thee go-
5: I will not let Thee go, unless
Thou tell Thy name to me,
with all Thy great salvation bless,
and make me all like Thee.
6: Then let me on the mountain-top
Behold Thy open face,
Where faith in sight is swallowed up,
And prayer in endless praise.Amen.
