1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare:
Jesus loves to answer prayer;
He Himself has bid thee pray,
Therefore will not say thee nay,
Therefore will not say thee nay.
2 Thou art coming to a King;
Large petitions with thee bring;
For His grace and power are such,
None can ever ask too much,
None can ever ask too much.
3 Lord, I come to thee for rest;
Take possession of my breast;
There Thy blood-bought right maintain,
And without a rival reign,
And without a rival reign.
4 While I am a pilgrim here,
Let Thy love my spirit cheer:
As my guide, my guard, my friend,
Lead me to my journey's end,
Lead me to my journey's end.
5 Show me what I have to do;
Every hour my strength renew;
Let me live a life of faith,
Let me die Thy people's death.
Amen.
