LyicsThe Savior! Oh what endless charms
Dwell in the blissful sound!
Its influence every fear disarms,
And spreads sweet peace around.
Here pardon, life, and joys divine,
In rich profusion flow;
For guilty rebels, lost in sin,
And doomed to endless woe.
The almighty Former of the skies
Stooped to our vile abode;
While angels viewed with wondering eyes,
And hailed the incarnate God.
Oh the rich depths of love divine!
Of bliss, a boundless store!
Blest Savior, let me call thee mine;
I can not wish for more.
On thee, alone, my hope relies;
Beneath thy cross I fall;
My Lord, my life, my sacrifice,
My Savior, and my all.
