Verse 1
Come, my soul! thy suit prepare;
Jesus loves to answer prayer;
He himself has bid thee pray,
Therefore will not say thee nay.
Verse 2
Thou art coming to a King,
Large petitions with thee bring;
For his grace and power are such,
None can ever ask too much.
Verse 3
Lord! I come to thee for rest,
Take possession of my breast;
There thy blood-bought right maintain,
And without a rival reign.
Verse 4
While I am a pilgrim here,
Let thy love my spirit cheer;
As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend,
Lead me to my journey’s end.
John Newton, “Come, My Soul! Thy Suit Prepare”
