1 I am the Lord's! O joy beyond expression,
O sweet response to voice of love Divine;
2 I am the Lord's! It is the glad confession
Wherewith the Bride recalls the happy day,
3 I am the Lord's! Yet teach me what it meaneth,
All it involves of love and loyalty,
4 I am the Lord's! Yes; body, soul, and spirit,
O seal them irrecoverably Thine;
