The Little While I Linger Here

Author: Frans Michael Franzen, 1772-1847 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #290 (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The little while I linger here Should grief and fear o'ertake me? No; Jesus is my Shepherd dear, He never will forsake me. He gave His life to save the herd, And with His Spirit and His Word, Is present with us always. 2 I hear Him speak, I know His voice, I go where'er He beckons. His own He knows, they are His choice, Their numbers, too, He reckons. And He will seek the straying sheep, The feeble in His bosom keep, And gently raise the fallen. 3 He strengthens me with living bread, With waters sweet and gracious, Which flow from life's great fountain-head, With peace and joy most precious. Though rough and thorny is my way, If from His path I do not stray, I shall not be discouraged. 4 O Thou who saidst, "Away from me No one shall snatch them ever." Thee I implore, to Thee I fee, Ah leave, forsake me, never! The world allures; oh, guide me through, That with the blesséd I may view thy Father's glorious mansions. 5 How vain the worldling's pomp and show, How brief His joys and pleasures! The night approaches now, and lo! We leave all earthly treasures. And then what is all earthly bliss to that blest promise, Where He is We shall be with Him also!
