F. A. Blackmer • English

And thou didst suffer much, And shed thy precious blood To save me from my sins, Thou blessed Lamb of God! Yes, thou didst give thy life for me; What can I do for thee?

'Twas all that I might have Salvation, full and free; Rich are the gifts indeed, That thou hast brought to me, Yes, thou hast brought rich gifts to me; What shall I bring to thee?

I'll bring my heart, dear Lord; 'Tis all that I can do; Though vile, I pray that thou Wilt cleanse it through and through: Yes, I'll forsake my sins for thee My Saviour, help thou me.
