Perfect Love Come Near To Me Songtext
von Wesley Randolph Eader

Oh perfect Love come near to me
From hatred help me part
So I may bless my enemy
With glimpses of Thy heart

For I am wise and wicked
But foolish I must become
Your Kingdom calls the little child
Oh Lord, please make me one
Oh Lord, please make me one

Oh Love revealed through human ties
Confirmed within my soul
For Thou has stirred the trembling thought
That man is not alone


So I will seek Your presence
Though great mysteries confound
By day and night You will arrive
In the soul′s unsettling sound
In the soul's unsettling sound

Oh Love that knows all human hearts
But calls them each His own
Hold me to Thy bosom tight
That I may never roam

For Thou has not forsaken me
But it is I who flees
Send Your blinding, holy Light
To still me to my knees
To still me to my knees

Oh Love that breaks all sinful bonds
Please conquer more of me
These walls of pride are building on
And keep me far from Thee


Ride swiftly [white?] His stallion
And raise your sword on high
And cut these cords of carnal lies
That I may with Thee ride
That I may with Thee ride
