Showers of Blessing ‎#64

64. True-hearted, Whole-hearted

1 True-hearted, whole-hearted, faithful and loyal,
King of our lives, by thy grace we will be!
Under the standard exalted and royal,
Strong in thy strength we will battle for thee.

Refrain:
Peal out the watchword, and silence it never,
Song of our spirits, rejoicing and free!
True-hearted, whole-hearted, now and forever,
King of our lives, by thy grace we will be!

2 True-hearted, whole-hearted! Fullest allegiance
Yielding henceforth to our glorious King;
Valiant endeavor and loving obedience
Freely and joyously now would we bring. [Refrain]

3 True-hearted! Saviour, thou knowest our story;
Weak are the hearts that we lay at thy feet,
Sinful and treacherous! yet, for thy glory,
Heal them, and cleanse them from sin and deceit. [Refrain]

4 True-hearted! Saviour, beloved and glorious,
Take thy great power, and reign thou alone,
Over our wills and affections victorious,
Freely surrendered, and wholly thine own. [Refrain]
