lyrics

Come, O Thou Traveller unknown
Whom still I hold but cannot see
My company before is gone
And I am left alone with Thee
With Thee all night I mean to stay
And wrestle till the break of day

I need not tell Thee who I am
My sin and misery declare
Thyself hast called me by my name
Look on Thy hands, and read it there
But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou?
Tell me Thy name, and tell me now

In vain Thou struggles to get free
I never will unloose my hold
Art Thou the Man that died for me?
The secret of Thy love unfold
I wrestle and won’t let Thee go
Till I Thy name, Thy nature know

Yield to me now, for I am weak
But confident in self-despair
Speak to my heart, in blessings speak
Be conquered by my instant prayer
Speak, or Thou never hence shalt move
And tell me if Thy name be Love

’Tis Love! ’tis Love! Thou died for me
I hear Thy whisper in my heart
The morning breaks, the shadows flee
Pure, universal Love Thou art
To me, to all Thy mercies move
Thy nature and Thy name is Love
