Come, Saviour Jesus, from above,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Assist me with thy heavenly grace;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Empty my heart of earthly love,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And for thyself prepare the place.<br /> <br /> 2. O let thy sacred presence fill,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And set my longing spirit free,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Which pants to have no other will,&lt;br&gt;<br /> But day and night to feast on thee.<br /> <br /> 3. While in this region here below,&lt;br&gt;<br /> No other good will I pursue;&lt;br&gt;<br /> I'll bid this world of noise and show,&lt;br&gt;<br /> With all its glittering snares, adieu!<br /> <br /> 4. That path, with humble speed, I'll seek,&lt;br&gt;<br /> In which my Saviour's footsteps shine;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Nor will I hear, nor will I speak,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Of any other love but thine.<br /> <br /> 5. Henceforth may no profane delight&lt;br&gt;<br /> Divide this consecrated soul;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Possess it thou, who hast the right,&lt;br&gt;<br /> As Lord and Master of the whole.<br /> <br /> 6. Wealth, honour, pleasure, and what else&lt;br&gt;<br /> This short-enduring world can give,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Tempt as ye will, my soul repels,&lt;br&gt;<br /> To Christ alone resolved to live.<br /> <br /> 7. Thee I can love, and thee alone,&lt;br&gt;<br /> With pure delight and inward bliss;&lt;br&gt;<br /> To know thou tak'st me for thine own,&lt;br&gt;<br /> O what a happiness is this!<br /> <br /> 8. Nothing on earth do I desire&lt;br&gt;<br /> But thy pure love within my breast;&lt;br&gt;<br /> This, only this, will I require,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And freely give up all the rest.<br /> <br /> [[category:Hymns]]<br /> [[category:Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:Public Domain]]<br /> [[category:Public Domain Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:English Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:British English Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:8 8 8 8]]</div>
