LyicsJesus, lover of my soul,
Let me to, Let me to,
Let me to thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll,
While the tempest still is high;
Hide me , Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,
Till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide,
Safe into the haven guide,
Safe into the haven guide,
O receive my soul at last.
Other refuge I have none,
Hangs my help- Hangs my help-
Hangs my helpless soul on thee;
Leave, ah! Leave me not alone;
Still support and comfort me;
All my, All my trust on thee is stayed;
All my help from thee I bring;
Cover my defenceless head,
Cover my defenceless head,
Cover my defenceless head,
With the shadow of thy wing.
Thou O Christ, art all I want;
More than all, More than all,
More than all in thee I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick and lead the blind.
Just and Just and holy is thy name;
I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am,
False and full of sin I am,
False and full of sin I am,
Thou art full of truth and grace.
Plenteous grace with thee is found,
Grace to cov- Grace to cov-
Grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound,
Make and keep me pure within.
Thou of, Thou of life the fountain art,
Freely let me take of thee;
Spring thou up within my heart,
Spring thou up within my heart,
Spring thou up within myheart,
Ruse to all eternity.
