Verse 1:
Jesus, I long for Thee
And sigh for Canaan's shore
Thy lovely face to see
And all my warfare o'er
Here billows break upon my breast
And brooding sorrows steal my rest

Verse 2:
I pant, I groan, I grieve
For my untoward heart
How full of doubts I live, though full of grace Thou art
What poor returns I make to Thee 
For all the mercy shown to me!

Verse 3:
And must I ever smart
A child of sorrows here
Yet Lord be near by heart to soothe each rising tear
Then at Thy bleeding cross I'll stay 
And sweetly weep my life away
