<p>I longed to be a child of God,<br>
And do my Savior&#8217;s will;<br>
And yet the sin that most I feared,<br>
I knew unconquered still.<br>
&#8220;Dear Lord,&#8221; I said, for as I knelt<br>
I saw Him on the tree&#8212;<br>
&#8220;This heavy burden on my heart,<br>
I&#8217;ll gladly bear for Thee.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">So now for Him Who died for me,<br>
I&#8217;m willing all to bear<br>
Obedient love will never fail,<br>
To bring the answered prayer.</p>
<p>The cold was lifted from my soul,<br>
My burden rolled away;<br>
The light of joy around me shed,<br>
A calm and heavenly ray.<br>
&#8220;Dear Lord,&#8221; I said, &#8220; I praise Thy Name<br>
For Thy rich grace to me;<br>
My load is gone and now I rest,<br>
In perfect peace with Thee.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>I heard a gentle voice within<br>
A whisper soft and mild;<br>
&#8220;Thy sin was cancelled by His blood,<br>
Who owns thee for His child.&#8221;<br>
&#8220;Dear Lord,&#8221; I said, &#8220;the work is Thine,<br>
And Thine the glory be.<br>
My life, my soul, my every pow&#8217;r,<br>
I consecrate to Thee.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
