At the Altar Kneeling

Fanny J. Crosby • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 43:4

Verse 1

O my Saviour, humbly I am coming, coming, Weary as a heart can be; Where Thy precious blood for me is flowing, flowing, I surrender all to Thee.

Chorus

At the altar, humbly I am kneeling, kneeling, Pleading Thy redemption free; Where Thy precious blood for me is flowing, flowing, I surrender all to Thee.

Verse 2

O my Saviour, to the cross I’m clinging, clinging, There by faith I hear Thee say, Whosoever trusteth in Thy promise, promise, Thou wilt never turn away.

Chorus

At the altar, humbly I am kneeling, kneeling, Pleading Thy redemption free; Where Thy precious blood for me is flowing, flowing, I surrender all to Thee.

Verse 3

Into rapture now my soul is breaking, breaking, Love has kindled to a flame; Thou hast saved me, blessed Lord, I know it, know it, Glory, glory to Thy name.

Chorus

At the altar, humbly I am kneeling, kneeling, Pleading Thy redemption free; Where Thy precious blood for me is flowing, flowing, I surrender all to Thee.

Verse 4

O! there’s joy where angel harps are ringing, ringing, Joy among their happy throng; At the altar, Jesus, Thou hast saved me, saved me, Thou hast fill’d my heart with song.

Chorus

At the altar, humbly I am kneeling, kneeling, Pleading Thy redemption free; Where Thy precious blood for me is flowing, flowing, I surrender all to Thee.
