Primary Scripture: Luke 12:15

Verse 1

Come, my fond flutt'ring heart; Come, struggle to be free; You and the world must part, However hard it be. My trembling spirit owns it just But still lies cleaving to the dust.

Verse 2

O tempting sweets, forbear; O dearest idols, fall; My love you must not share; Jesus shall have it all. Though painful and acute the smart, His love can heal the bleeding heart.

Verse 3

O fair, enchanting throng! O golden dreams, adieu! Earth has prevailed too long; Too long I've cherished you; Aid me, dear Savior, set me free; My all I will resign to thee.

Verse 4

Oh, may I feel your worth And let no idol dare, No vanity of Earth With you, my Lord, compare; Now bid all earthly joys depart, And reign unrivaled in my heart.
