That final day will surely come, when I am laid to rest Then must I before my Lord own my unrighteousness Give me one assuring word to ease my anxious heart I could not bear to hear Your voice bid my soul, "Depart" Chief of all my joys Sovereign of my heart Whom have I in heaven but You? My heart may fail But You are my Strength Whom have I in heaven but You? O, wretched state of deep despair! If You Your hand remove, And place my hopeless station where I must not taste his love. O, tell me that my worthless name is graven on Your hands, Show me some promise in Your Word, where my salvation stands! Chief of all my joys Sovereign of my heart Whom have I in heaven but You? My heart may fail But You are my Strength Whom have I in heaven but You? Lord, when I quit this earthly stage, Where shall I fly but to Your presence? For I have sought no other home, For I have learned no other rest. // Chief of all my joys Sovereign of my heart Whom have I in heaven but You? My heart may fail But You are my Strength Whom have I in heaven but You? //
