24. Jesus Lover of my soul | Hymns

1.Jesus Lover of my soul,
Let me to Thy bosom fly.
While the nearer water 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!

2. Other refuge have I none,
Hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
Leave, ah, 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.

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.
