Mahalia Jackson - My Faith Looks Up To Thee

My faith looks up to thee

Thou Lamb of Calvary

Savior divine

Now hear me while I pray

Take all my guilt away

O let me from this day

Be wholly thine

May thy rich grace impart

Strength to my fainting heart

My zeal inspire

As thou hast died for me

O may my love to thee

Pure, warm, and changeless be

A living fire

While life's dark maze I tread

And griefs around me spread

Be thou my guide

Bid darkness turn to day

Wipe sorrow's tears away

Nor let me ever stray

From thee aside

When ends life's transient dream

When death's cold, sullen stream

Shall o'er me roll

Blessed Savior, then in love

Fear and distrust remove

O bear me safe above

A ransomed soul
