And Dost Thou Say

And Dost Thou Say by John Newton


 * And dost Thou say, “Ask what thou wilt”?
 * Lord, I would seize the golden hour;
 * I pray to be released from guilt,
 * And freed from sin and Satan’s power.


 * More of Thy presence, Lord, impart,
 * More of Thine image let me bear;
 * Erect Thy throne within my heart,
 * And reign without a rival there.


 * Give me to read my pardon sealed,
 * And from Thy joy to draw my strength;
 * To have Thy boundless love revealed
 * In all its height, and breadth, and length.


 * Grant these requests—I ask no more,
 * But to Thy care the rest resign;
 * Living or dying, rich or poor,
 * All shall be well if Thou art mine.
