“I will not let thee go.” Gen. 32. 26; Song. 3. 4
1
Shepherd divine, our wants relieve
 
In this our evil day;
 
To all thy tempted followers give
 
The power to trust and pray.
2
Long as our fiery trials last,
 
Long as the cross we bear;
 
O let our souls on thee be cast,
 
In never-ceasing prayer.
3
Till thou the Father’s love impart,
 
Till thou thyself bestow,
 
Be this the cry of every heart,
 
“I will not let thee go.
4
“I will not let thee go, unless
 
Thou tell thy name to me;
 
With all thy great salvation bless,
 
And say, ‘Christ died for thee.’”
