Sheet music

  1. 1O, the bitter pain and sorrowThat a time could ever be,When I proudly said to Jesus“All of self, and none of Thee,”All of self and none of Thee,All of self and none of Thee,When I proudly said to Jesus,“All of self, and none of Thee.”
  2. 2Yet He found me; I beheld HimBleeding on th’ac-curs-ed tree,And my wistful heart said faintly,“Some of self, and some of Thee,”Some of self and some of Thee,Some of self and some of Thee,And my wistful heart said faintly,“Some of self, and some of Thee.”
  3. 3Day by day His tender mercyHealing, helping full and free,Bro’t me lower while I whispered“Less of self, and more of Thee,”Less of self and more of Thee,Less of self and more of Thee,Bro’t me lower while I whispered,“Less of self, and more of Thee.”
  4. 4Higher than the highest heavens,Deeper than the deepest sea,Lord, Thy love at last hath conquered“None of self, and all of Thee,”None of self and all of Thee,None of self and all of Thee,Lord, Thy love at last hath conquered,“None of self, and all of Thee.”
