Lyics

Saviour, I lift my trembling eyes,

To that bright seat, where, place don high,

The great, the atoning sacrifice,

For me, for all, is ever nigh.



Be thou my guard on peril's brink;

Be thou my guide through weal or wo;

And teach me of thy cup to drink,

And make me in thy faith to go.



For what is earthly change or loss?

Thy promises are still my own:

The feeblest frame my bear thy cross,

The lowliest spirit share thy throne.
