Come O Thou Traveller Christian Song Lyrics in English
Come, O Thou Traveller unknown,
whom still I hold,
but cannot see! My company before is gone,
and I am left alone with Thee;
with Thee all night I mean to stay,
and wrestle till the break of day.
I need not tell Thee who I am,
my misery and sin declare;
Thyself hast called me by my name;
look on Thy hands, and read it there: but who,
I ask Thee, who art Thou?
Tell me Thy name, and tell me now.
In vain Thou strugglest to get free;
I never will unloose my hold!
Art Thou the Man that died for me?
The secret of Thy love unfold: wrestling,
I will not let Thee go, till I Thy name,
Thy nature know.
Yield to me now; for I am weak,
but confident in self-despair;
speak to my heart, in blessings speak,
be conquered by my instant prayer;
speak, or Thou never hence shalt move,
and tell me if Thy name is Love.
„This Love! „This Love! Thou diedst for me!
I hear Thy whisper in my heart; the morning breaks,
the shadows flee, pure, universal Love Thou art;
to me, to all, Thy mercies move:
Thy nature and Thy name is Love.
I know Thee, Saviour, who Thou art,
Jesus, the feeble sinner‟s Friend;
nor wilt Thou with the night depart,
but stay and love me to the end;
Thy mercies never shall remove:
Thy nature and Thy name is Love.
