Refrain: Jesus, my Saviour, stay forever near my side; Jesus, my Saviour, Safe in Thee I hide. 2 Only in Jesus has my soul supreme delight, Jesus who robes me in His garments white; So, until the day dawn I shall rest beneath His wing, Then shall dwell forever with my God and King. [Refrain] 3 Dawn, happy morning, day of gladness and of rest, Bright day of crowning, last of all and best; Rise, thou Sun of beauty, O reveal Thy glory now, Ev’ry tongue shall bless Thee ev’ry knee shall bow.
