Oh, love that will not let me go | I rest me weary soul in Thee | I give You back this life I owe | And in Your ocean depths its flow | May richer fuller be || Oh, light that follows all my way | I yield my flickering torch to Thee | And my heart restores its borrowed ray | And in Your sunshine’s blaze, its day | May brighter, fairer be || Rejoice my heart | Rejoice my soul | My Savior God has come to Thee | Rejoice my heart | You’ve been made whole | By a love that will not let me go || Oh, joy that seeks me through the pain | I cannot close my heart to Thee | I chase the rainbow through the rain | And feel the promise is not vain | That more shall tearless be || Oh, cross that lifts and holds my head | I dare not ask to fly from thee | I lay in dust life’s glory dead | From the ground, their blossoms red | Life that shall endless be

Behind the Song:
"An elderly man handed me a lyric to an old hymn after a concert and it turned into the last track on the album. He told me the hymn "Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go" had meant so much to him through the years, and he asked if I would consider rewriting it using some of the original text.

The song was written in the 19th century by George Matheson, a man who had lost his parents, his sight, and the love of his life. His sister was his caretaker, and she was soon to marry and move away. He penned this lyric on the eve of her wedding. I knew right away that I wanted to join his lyric with a poem I had written "Rejoice my heart, Rejoice my soul. My Saviour God has come to thee." This song, more than any other that we've written, has become a favorite of our church to sing." - Robbie Seay
