The Lord is My Portion.

By L. E. Millne

O Blessed Saviour! glorious King! To thee my offering I will bring. O Lord of hosts! thou art to me My portion here. I love but thee.
Do thou, O Lord, my heart inspire With zeal and love and sacred fire. I feel, my Saviour, thou art mine, Thou causest, Lord, my face to shine.
At early morn, or midnight hour, I feel, O Lord, thy quickening power. The witness' gained, the ransom's paid, Thy love doth all my soul pervade.
O may it be my utmost joy, And may it all my powers employ, To do thy will; may I resign Home, friends, and all, forever thine.
And should I feel death's cold embrace, I'll sing, O Lord, of thy rich grace, And shout when time with me is done, Through Christ, my Lord, the victory won. L. E. Millne.
