Lyics

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 Saviour, hide,

Till the storm of life be past;

Safe into the haven guide;

Oh! receive my soul at last.



Other refuge have I none,--

Hangs my helpless soul on thee;

Leave, oh! 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 defenceless head,

With the shadow of thy wing.



Plenteous grace with thee is found,--

Grace to pardon all my sins;

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.
