I WILL DEFEAT DEATH

1.I love Thee Lord(2) In This life I’ve none but Thee

Saviour, dear Lord, Thou art mine through eternity.


CHORUS


Lord, I desire Thy face to see,

Willing rather to be present there with Thee

I’ll at home in the body conquer mortality

And be there ! O. how I long that day to see !

2.To know Thee Lord(2) and Thy pow’r, Thy riches great

My God, my King, vain world’s greatness I scorn and Hate.

3.To win Thee Lord (2) is my aim, my purpose here

Saviour, sweet Lord, hence my life do I count not dear.


4.By Thee I’m held (2) to attain my goal by grace

My Lord, my Guide, Till I reach Thee, I’ll run my race.


5.Though here I groan (2) to Be freed from this my tent

Saviour, by Thee sure, right here I will death defeat.

6.This earthly tent(2) I have clothed mat soon dissolve

Great God, By Thee, I’ll not die but forever live.
