"Jesus, I come"

Lyrics by William Sleeper:

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. 

Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come, Jesus I come;
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus I come to Thee.

Out of 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...
