Liebe die du mich zum Bilde
1. O Love, who formedst me to wear / The image of thy Godhead here; / Who soughtest me with tender care / Through all my wanderings wild and drear: /
Refrain: O Love, I give myself to thee, / Thine ever, only thine to be.
2. O Love, who once in time wast slain, / Pierced through and through with bitter woe; / O Love, who wrestling thus didst gain / That we eternal joy might know; /
Refrain: O Love, I give myself to thee, / Thine ever, only thine to be.
3. O Love, of whom is truth and light, / The Word and Spirit, life and power, / Whose heart was bared to them that smite, / To shield us in our trial hour: /
Refrain: O Love, I give myself to thee, / Thine ever, only thine to be.
4. O Love, who lovest me for ay, / Who for my soul dost ever plead; / O Love, who didst my ransom pay / Whose power sufficeth in my stead: /
Refrain: O Love, I give myself to thee, / Thine ever, only thine to be.
5. O Love, who once shalt bid me rise / From out this dying life of ours; / O Love, who once above yon skies / Shalt set me in the fadeless bowers: /
Refrain: O Love, I give myself to thee, / Thine ever, only thine to be. / Amen.
Words: Johann Scheffler. Music: Frederick Arthur Gore Ouseley. Video: Michael-Hubert Lamla.
