[A] Come, O thou [Em] traveler unknown, [G] Whom still I hold but [A] cannot see,
My company [E] before is [A] gone, [G] And I am left [A] alone with thee.
[Em] [C] With [D] thee, O Lord, I mean [C] to stay, [Am] And [D] wrestle till [Em] the break [Am] of day.
[C]
[A] I [Am] need not tell [Em] thee who I [Am] am, [G] My misery [Em] [Am] and sin declare,
Thyself hast [Em] called me by [Am] my name, [G] Look on thy hands [Am] and read it there.
But [C] I [G] ask [D] thee, who [C] art thou?
[Am] Tell me thy name, and tell me now.
[G] [Am]
[Em] [Am] [Dm] [Em] [Am]
In vain thou [Em] strugglest to [Am] get free, [G] I never [Am] will unloose my hold.
Art thou the [Em] man that died [Am] for me, [G] The secret of [Am] thy love unfold?
[C] Rest, [Dm] let [C] me go, [Am] Till I [Dm] thy name, [Am] thy nature know.

Tis love, tis love, thou died for me, [G] I hear thy [Am] whisper in my heart.
The morning breaks, [C] the shadows [Am] flee, [G] Pure [Am] universe and love thou art.
To [C] me, [Dm] to all, thy [G] [C] vows move, [Am] Thy [D] nature, and [Am] thy name is love.
[Dm] [G] [Am] [Am]
[Em] [Am] [Dm] [Em] [Am] [A]
[Am] The sun of righteousness on me, [G] Has risen healing [Am] in his wings.
Without my [Em] nature's strength [Am] from thee, [G] My soul is [D] life [Am] and sorrow free.
[C] My help [D] is only [C] above [Am] thy [D] nature, And thy [Am] name is love.
