O My Soul

O my soul arise and bless your Maker
for He is your Master and your Friend
Slow to wrath but rich in tender mercy,
worship the Saviour Jesus
King of grace His love is overwhelming,
Bread of Life He's all I'll ever need
For His blood has purchased me forever,
bought at the cross of Jesus

And I will sing for all my days
of heaven's love come down
Each breath I take will speak His praise
until He calls me home

When I wake I know that He is with me,
when I'm weak I know that He is strong
Though I fall His arm is there to lean on,
safe on the Rock of Jesus
Stir in me the songs that You are singing,
fill my gaze with things as yet unseen
Give me faith to move in works of power,
making me more like Jesus
And I will sing for all my days,
of heaven's love come down
Each breath I take will speak His praise,
until He calls me home
Then one day I'll see Him as He sees me,
face to face the Lover and the loved
No more words the longing will be over,
there with my precious Jesus
