185 S.M. Isaac Watts
God all in all. Ps. 16. 11; 73. 25
1
My God, my Life, my Love,
 
To thee, to thee I call,
 
I cannot live if thou remove,
 
For thou art all in all.
2
[Thy shining grace can cheer
 
This dungeon where I dwell;
 
’Tis paradise when thou art here;
 
If thou depart, ’tis hell.]
3
[The smilings of thy face,
 
How amiable they are!
 
’Tis heaven to rest in thy embrace,
 
And nowhere else but there.]
4
[To thee, and thee alone,
 
The angels owe their bliss;
 
They sit around thy gracious throne,
 
And dwell where Jesus is.]
5
[Not all the harps above
 
Can make a heavenly place,
 
If God his residence remove,
 
Or but conceal his face.]
6
Nor earth, nor all the sky,
 
No, not a drop of real joy,
 
Without thy presence, Lord.
7
[Thou art the sea of love,
 
Where all my pleasures roll;
 
The circle where my passions move,
 
And centre of my soul.]
8
[To thee my spirits fly,
 
With infinite desire;
 
And yet how far from thee I lie;
 
Dear Jesus, raise me higher.]
