My Saviour, my almighty Friend,
When I begin thy praise,
Where will the growing numbers end,
The numbers of thy grace?
I trust in thy eternal word;
Thy goodness I adore:
Send down thy grace, O blessed Lord,
That I may love thee more.
My feet shall travel all the length
Of the celestial road;
And march, with courage in thy strength,
To see the Lord my God.
Awake! awake! my tuneful powers,
With this delightful song;
And entertain the darkest hours,
Nor think the season long.
Hymns for the Use of the Methodist Episcopal Church: With Tunes for Congregational Worship (1857, Carlton and Porter, New York).
