OUT OF MY BONDAGE

Out of my bondage, sorrow, and night,

Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Into Thy freedom, gladness, and light,

Jesus, I come to Thee!

Out of my sickness into Thy health,

out of my want and into Thy wealth,

out of my sin and into Thyself,

Jesus, I come to Thee!




Out of my shameful failure and loss,

Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,

Jesus, I come to Thee!

Out of earth‟s sorrows into Thy balm,

out of life‟s storms and into Thy calm,

out of distress to jubilant psalm,

Jesus, I come to Thee!




Out of unrest and arrogant pride,

Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Into Thy blessed will to abide,

Jesus, I come to Thee!

Out of myself to dwell in Thy love,

out of despair into raptures above,

upward for aye on wings like a dove,

Jesus, I come to Thee!




Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,

Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Into the joy and light of Thy home,

Jesus, I come to Thee!

Out of the depths of ruin untold,

into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,

ever Thy glorious face to behold,

Jesus, I come to Thee! ......
