Hymn 005 - Come to me, Lord, when first I wake

L.M.
When will Thou come unto me: Ps. 101:2

1. mf Come to me, Lord, when first I wake
   As the faint lights of morning break;
   Bid purest thoughts within me rise,
   Like crystal dew-drops to the skies.
2. Come to me in the sultry noon,
   Or earth's low communing will soon
   Of Thy dear Face, eclipse the light,
   And change my fairest day to night
3. mp Come to me in the evening shade
   And if my heart from Thee hath strayed,
   Oh bring it back, and from afar
   Smile on me like Thine ev'ning star
4. Come to me in the midnight hour,
   When sleep withholds its balmy pow'r;
   p Let my lone spirit find her rest,
   Like John, upon my Saviour's breast.
5. mp Come to me through life's varied way,
   And when its pulses cease to play
   Then, Saviour, bid me come to Thee
   f That where Thou art, Thy child may be.
   Amen.
