Intro: Last two lines D D/A A 1. O Love that wilt not let me go, 2. O Light that followest all my way, 3. O Joy that seekest me through pain, 4. O Cross that liftest up my head, A7/G A7/F# A7/E A7/D A7/C# I rest my weary soul in Thee; I yield my flickering torch to Thee; I cannot close my heart to Thee; I dare not ask to fly from Thee; D F#7/C# F#7 Bsus4 Bm I give thee back the life I owe, My heart restores its borrowed ray, I trace the rainbow through the rain, I lay in dust life’s glory dead, E7 A That in Thine ocean depths its flow That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day And feel the promise is not vain And from the ground there blossoms red D/A A7 D May richer, fuller be. May brighter, fairer be. That morn shall tearless be. Life that shall end-less be.
