Christ My Song - 207
Trustingly, trustingly - My Pilgrimage
(Horatius Bonar/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)
My Pilgrimage.
1. Trustingly, trustingly,
Jesus, to thee
come I; Lord, lovingly
come thou to me!
Then shall I lovingly,
then shall I joyfully,
walk here with thee,
walk here with thee. PDF - Midi
2. Peacefully, peacefully,
walk I with thee;
Jesus, my Lord, thou art
all, all, to me.
Peace thou hast left us,
thy peace hast given us,
so let it be,
so let it be.
3. Whom but thyself, O Lord,
have I above?
What have I left on earth?
Only thy love!
Come then, O Saviour, come;
come then, O Spirit, come,
heavenly dove,
heavenly dove.
4. Happily, happily,
pass I along,
eager to work for thee,
earnest and strong.
Life is for service true,
life is for battle too,
life is for song,
life is for song.
5. Hopefully, hopefully,
onward I go;
cheerfully, cheerfully,
meet I the foe.
Crowns are awaiting us,
glory prepared for us,
joys overflow,
joys overflow.
