Lifted up by Love Divine
Darkness and despair depart.
Evermore entirely Thine
Called to be where now Thou art.
Chorus -
Rescued from the miry clay
Gathered from the noisome pit
I will praise Thee every day
For the flame Thy love hath lit.
In the Volume of Thy Book
There Thy will I clearly see,
And no interference brook
In obedience Lord to Thee.
Sum of all Thy sacred thought
Object of my fond desire,
In my heart Thy love inwrought
Thought Thy holy purging fire.
Placed by
mighty saving power
On the road the Master trod,
Keep my stumbling steps each hour
Till I dwell with Thee my God.
- T.W.Watson
The above hymn may be sung to Aberystwyth
