490- Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Christian Life: Meditation and Prayer

1

  • Jesus, lover of my soul,
  • Let me to Thy bosom fly,
  • While the billows near me roll,
  • While the tempest still is high;
  • Hide me, O my Savior, hide!
  • Till the storm of life is past;
  • Safe into the haven guide,
  • O receive my soul at last!

2

  • Other refuge have I none,
  • Hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
  • Leave, O leave me not alone!
  • Still support and comfort me;
  • All my trust on Thee is stayed,
  • All my help from Thee I bring;
  • Cover my defenseless head
  • With the shadow of Thy wing.

3

  • Thou, O Christ, art all I want,
  • More than all in Thee I find;
  • Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
  • Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
  • Just and holy is Thy name,
  • I am all unrighteousness;
  • Vile and full of sin I am,
  • Thou art full of truth and grace.

4

  • Plenteous grace with Thee is found;
  • Grace to pardon all my sin;
  • Let the healing streams abound,
  • Make and keep me pure within;
  • Thou of life the Fountain art,
  • Freely let me take of Thee;
  • Spring Thou up within my heart,
  • Rise to all eternity.
