I will not let thee go!
3 I will not let thee go, my God, my Life, my Lord!
Not death can tear
Me from his care,
Who for my sake his soul in death outpoured.
Thou diedst for love to me,
I say in love to thee,
E’en when my heart shall break, my God, my Life, my Lord,
I will not let thee go!
Desyler.
