Lyrics

Lyrics from The Garner: Songs and Hymns for Sunday Schools, Prayer Meetings, Temperance, and Gospel Meetings, 1878 (no. 108)

1. Welcome, welcome, dear Redeemer,
Welcome to this heart of mine;
Lord, I make a full surrender,
Every power and thought be thine;
Thine entirely,
Through eternal ages thine.

2. Known to all to be thy mansion,
Earth and hell will disappear;
Or in vain attempt possession,
When they find the Lord is near;
Shout, O Zion!
Shout, yet saints! the Lord is here.

Lyrics from Revival Melodies, or Songs of Zion, 1842 (no. 37)

Welcome, Dear Redeemer!

1. Welcome, welcome, dear Redeemer,
Welcome to this heart of mine!
Lord, I make a full surrender;
Ev'ry pow'r and thought be thine,
Thine forever!
Thine, O Lord, forever thine.

2. Sin, and all its dread oppression,
From my soul shall disappear!
Doubt shall not obtain possession,
For thy truth is ever near.
I will praise thee!
Lord, I feel thy blessing here!
