1 Hark, my soul! it is the Lord;
‘Tis thy Saviour, hear his word;
Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee:
Say, poor sinner, lov’st thou me?
2 I delivered thee when bound,
And, when bleeding, healed thy wound;
Sought thee wandering, set thee right,
Turned thy darkness into light.
3 Can a woman’s tender care
Cease toward the child she bare?
Yes, she may forgetful be;
Yet will I remember thee.
4 Mine is an unchanging love,
Higher than the heights above,
Deeper than the depths beneath,
Free and faithful, strong as death.
5 Thou shalt see my glory soon,
When the work of grace is done;
Partner of my throne shalt be;
Say, poor sinner, lov’st thou me?
6 Lord, it is my chief complaint
That my love is weak and faint;
Yet I love thee, and adore;
O for grace to love thee more!
