Until

No peace within my heart,

All guilt and shame.

From sin I could not part,

Till Jesus came.

No life, no light, no joy,

My soul possessed,

No hope; Until He came

And brought me rest.


Oh Christ, rule ever in

This yielded life.

O keep me pure and free

From sin and strife.

Fill me with love and holiness Divine,

O Victory! For I am Yours

And You are Mine!
