Jesus, Lover Of My Soul Hymn Lyrics

1

Jesus, Lover of my soul,

Let me to Thy bosom fly,

While the nearer waters roll,

While the tempest still is high ;

Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,

Till the storm of life is 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, 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.

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 cover all my sin :

Let the healing streams abound ;

Make me, 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.
