Oluwa, emi sa ti gb’ohun Re

1. Oluwa emi sa ti gb’ohun Re
O nso ife Re simi
Sugbon mo fe nde l’apa igbagbo
Ki nle tubo sun mo o

Fa mi mora, mora, Oluwa
Sib’agbelebu t’O ku
Fa mi mora, mora, mora Oluwa
Si b’eje Re t’o n’iye

2. Ya mi si mimo fun ise Tire
Nipa ore-ofe Re
Je ki nfi okan igbagbo w’oke
K’ife mi si je Tire

3. A ! ayo mimo ti wakati kan

4. Ijinle ife mbe ti nko le mo
Titi un o koja odo
Ayo giga ti emi ko le so
Tit un o fi de ‘simi. Amin.

I am Thine, O Lord,

1. I am Thine, O Lord,

I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith,

And be closer drawn to Thee.

Draw me near-er,

Near-er, blessed Lord,

To the cross, where thou hast died,

Draw me near-er,

Near-er, blessed Lord,

To thy precious, bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now to thy service Lord,

By the power of grace divine;

Let my soul look up

With a stead-fast hope,

And my will be lost in Thine.

3. O the pure delight of a single hour,

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer,

And with Thee my God,

I commune as friend with friend.

4. There are depths of love,

That I cannot know

Till I cross the narrow sea,

There are heights of joy,

That I may not reach

Till I rest in peace with Thee.
