Humbly Confessing

Fanny Crosby • English

Primary Scripture: Ezra 10:11

Verse 1

Humbly confessing Our need, O Lord, of Thee, Pleading Thy promise, We come before Thy throne; Hear, O Saviour, hear us, Draw in mercy near us, Consecrate our willing hearts, Ever Thine alone.

Chorus

Humbly confessing, Low before Thee now we bend; Make our willing hearts, O Saviour, Ever Thine to be.

Verse 2

Humbly confessing Thy all-sufficient grace, Taught by Thy goodness To cast our care on Thee; While our way pursuing, Still our strength renewing, Open Thou our joyful eyes, Life beyond to see.

Chorus

Humbly confessing, Low before Thee now we bend; Make our willing hearts, O Saviour, Ever Thine to be.

Verse 3

Humbly confessing The greatness of Thy pow’r, O keep us faithful, And grant our soul’s request; May Thy truth uphold us, May Thine arms enfold us, Till we reach our home at last, In the vale of rest.

Chorus

Humbly confessing, Low before Thee now we bend; Make our willing hearts, O Saviour, Ever Thine to be.
