Hymns 3 - Compared with Christ текст песни

Compared with Christ, in all beside
No comeliness I see;
The one thing needful, dearest Lord,
Is to be one with thee.

The sense of thy redeeming love
Into my soul convey;
Thyself bestow, for thee alone,
My All-in-all, I pray.

Less than myself will not suffice
My comfort to restore;
More than thyself I can not crave,
And thou cans't give no more.

Loved of my God, for him again,
With love intense I'd burn;
Chosen of thee ere time began,
I'd choose thee in return.
