OUT OF MY BONDAGE
1. Out of my bondage, sorrow and
night,
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into Thy freedom, gladness and
light
Jesus I come to Thee;
Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my want and into Thy
wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thy-self,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
2. Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come, Jesus I come;
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus I come to Thee;
Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy
balm,
Out of life’s storms and into Thy
calm,
Out of distress to jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
3. Out of unrest and arrogant pride,
Jesus I come, Jesus, I come;
Into Thy blessed will to abide,
Jesus, I come to Thee;
Out of myself to dwell in Thy love,
Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward for aye on wings like a
dove,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
4. Out of the fear and dread of the
tomb,
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come
Into the joy and light of Thy home,
Jesus, I come to Thee;
Out of the depths of ruin untold,
Into the peace of Thy sheltering
fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
