Purvis Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: I know that my Savior has found me Refrain First Line: He saves me I know Lyrics: 1 I know that my Savior has found me, The spirit bears witness within, The light of His love shines around me Dispelling the darkness of sin. He suffered for me in the garden, His infinite mercy to show, On Calvary purchased my pardon, And died that His peace I might know, Refrain: He saves me I know, O, grace so rich and free! The blood that washes white as snow now cleanses even me. He saves me I know, O, grace so rich and free! The blood that washes white as snow now cleanses even me. 2 I know that He shelters and feeds me, In fields ever green I abide, The Shepherd omnipotent leads me, Salvation’s clear waters beside; And tho’ thro’ the valley He call me, The shadows will vanish away, No evil, I know, can befall me, With Him as my comfort and stay. [Refrain] 3 I know that His love will provide me A refuge when skies are o’ercast, And safe in the rock He will Hide me Till tempest and billows are past. My heart is with peace overflowing, With joy and His favor divine, As onward I go, ever knowing That Christ, the Redeemer, is mine. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 John 5:13 Used With Tune: [I know that my Savior has found me]
