O Love That Will Not Let Me Go


I came across talented singer Sam Robson on YouTube. Below is his wonderful acapella arrangement of the hymn, "O Love That Will Not Let Me Go". I've listened to it a few times & it makes me smile!

If you enjoyed this hymn, here is the link to Sam's YouTube channel:  http://www.youtube.com/user/traanncce

O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

O light that foll’west all my way,
I yield my flick’ring torch to thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain,
That morn shall tearless be.

O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.
