COME SAVIOUR JESUS FROM ABOVE

Come Saviour Jesus From Above 

1.

Come, Saviour Jesus, from above,

Assist me with thy heavenly grace;

Empty my heart of earthly love,

And for thyself prepare the place.

2.

O let thy sacred presence fill

And set my longing spirit free,

Which wants to have no other will,

But day and night to feast on thee!

3.

 Henceforth may no profane delight

Divide this consecrated soul;

Possess it thou, who hast the right,

As Lord and Master of the whole.

4.

 Wealth, honour, pleasure, and what else

This short-enduring world can give,

Tempt as ye will, my soul repels;

To Christ alone resolved to live.

5.

 Nothing on earth do I desire

But thy pure love within my breast;

This, only this, do I require,

And freely give up all the rest.
