Song of Songs 4:6

 

 1 

I will get me to the mountain,

   I will get me to the hill;

In Thy death and resurrection,

   Jesus, take me deeper still.

 

I will get me to the mountain,

Willingly would get me there.

All my self fore'er forsaking,

One with Thee, O Lord,

   Thy death to share.

 

 2 

Still at times I sense the shadows

   Of my nature, untransformed;

Lord, I'll go unto the mountain,

   To Thy death to be conformed.

 

I will get me to the mountain,

Willingly would get me there.

All my self fore'er forsaking,

One with Thee, O Lord,

   Thy death to share.

 

 3 

On the mountain till the daybreak,

   Linger I, Lord, thus with Thee,

May Thy all-transforming Spirit

   Saturate me thoroughly.

 

I will get me to the mountain,

Willingly would get me there.

All my self fore'er forsaking,

One with Thee, O Lord,

   Thy death to share.

 

 4 

Mingled with Thee on the mountain,

   Soon my sun begins to shine;

Death has worked her deep impression,

   Now my nature's one with Thine.

 

I will get me to the mountain,

Willingly would get me there.

All my self fore'er forsaking,

One with Thee, O Lord,

   Thy death to share.
