Absorbed in Christ. (635) Mine eyes and my desire Are ever to the Lord; I love to plead his promises, And rest upon his word. 2 Lord, turn thee to my soul; Bring thy salvation near; When will thy hand release my feet From sin's destructive snare? 3 When shall the sov'reign grace Of my forgiving God Restore me from those dangerous ways My wand'ring feet have trod? 4 Oh, keep my soul from death, Nor put my hope to shame; For I have placed my only trust In my Redeemer's name. Isaac Watts, 1719.
