Especially everlasting gift possessing
Striving to reach-out with the Saviour’s assurance
Offering mercy, forgiveness, deliverance.
Refrain: Such is my heart’s infrangible resolve indeed
The Lord is my witness; He meets my soul’s great need
Upholding my faith, He strengthens service-might
Honouring my covenant of worship delight.
To have a fulfilled life, experiencing freedom
Abiding in Christ’s will, advancing His kingdom
Unclasped from vain selfishness and haughtiness’ chains
Valuing eternal gain midst temporal pains.
Refrain: Such is my heart’s infrangible resolve indeed
The Lord is my witness; He meets my soul’s great need
Upholding my faith, He strengthens service-might
Honouring my covenant of worship delight.
