1	Out of my bondage, sorrow and night, 
	Jesus, I come, Jesus I come!
	Into Thy freedom, gladness and light, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 
	Out of my sickness into Thy health, 
	Out of my want and into Thy wealth, 
	Out of my sin and into Thyself, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 

2	Out of my shameful failure and loss, 
	Jesus, I come, Jesus I come; 
	Into Thy glorious gain of Thy cross, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 
	Out of the earth's sorrows into Thy balm, 
	Out of life's storms and into Thy calm, 
	Out of distress to jubilant psalm, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 

3	Out of unrest and arrogant pride, 
	Jesus, I come, Jesus I come; 
	Into Thy blessed will to abide, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 
	Out of myself to dwell in Thy love, 
	Out of despair into raptures above, 
	Upward of aye on wings like a dove, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 

4	Out of the fear and dread of the tomb, 
	Jesus, I come, Jesus I come; 
	Into the joy and light of Thy home, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee. 
	Out of the depths of ruin untold, 
	Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold, 
	Ever Thy glorious face to behold, 
	Jesus, I come to Thee.
