Hark! my soul, it is the Lord,
'Tis the Savior, hear His word;
Jesus speaks, He speaks to thee,
"Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?"
Hark, my soul! it is the Lord;, Stanza 1

Lord, it is my chief complaint
That my love is weak and faint;
Yet I love Thee, and adore;
O for grace to love Thee more!
Hark, my soul! it is the Lord;, Stanza 6
