| Come, O Thou Traveler unknown,

|  | 1. | Come, O Thou Traveler unknown, | 
|  |  | Whom still I hold but cannot see; | 
|  |  | My company before is gone, | 
|  |  | And I am left alone with Thee; | 
|  |  | With Thee all night I mean to stay, | 
|  |  | And wrestle till the break of day. | 
|  | 2. | I need not tell Thee who I am, | 
|  |  | My sin and misery declare; | 
|  |  | Thyself hast called me by my name, | 
|  |  | Look on Thy hands, and read it there; | 
|  |  | But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou? | 
|  |  | Tell me Thy name, and tell me now. | 
|  | 3. | In vain Thou strugglest to get free; | 
|  |  | I never will unloose my hold; | 
|  |  | Art Thou the Man that died for me? | 
|  |  | The secret of Thy love unfold; | 
|  |  | Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, | 
|  |  | Till I Thy name, Thy nature know. | 
|  | 4. | Yield to me now, for I am weak, | 
|  |  | But confident in self-despair; | 
|  |  | Speak to my heart, in blessings speak, | 
|  |  | Be conquered by my instant prayer; | 
|  |  | Speak, or Thou never hence shalt move, | 
|  |  | And tell me if Thy name be Love. | 
|  | 5. | 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! Thou diedst for me; | 
|  |  | I hear Thy whisper in my heart; | 
|  |  | The morning breaks, the shadows flee: | 
|  |  | Pure, universal Love Thou art; | 
|  |  | To me, to all Thy mercies move; | 
|  |  | Thy nature and Thy name is Love. | 
|  | 6. | Lame as I am, I take the prey; | 
|  |  | Hell, earth and sin, with ease o'ercome. | 
|  |  | I leap for joy, pursue my way, | 
|  |  | And, as a bounding hart, I run, | 
|  |  | Through all eternity to prove | 
|  |  | Thy nature and Thy name is Love. |
