Representative Text

1 Savior, fold me in Thy arms,
Keep me safe from earth’s alarms;
Keep me washed in Jesus’ blood—
Keep me in the crimson flood.

Refrain:
Sweetly saved! all hail to the Lamb!
All glory and praise to Jesus be giv’n,
Sweetly saved! all hail to the Lamb!
All glory and praise to Jesus be giv’n!

2 Keep me humble at Thy feet,
Always for Thy use made meet;
May I, Savior, find in Thee,
Refuge, favor, liberty. [Refrain]

3 Knowest Thou my pains and fears;
Lord, Thou seest all my tears;
Loving Savior, meek and mild,
Thou dost guide Thy loving child. [Refrain]

4 Savior, always be my guide,
While on life’s uneven tide;
Guide me to the streets of gold,
Safely housed within Thy fold. [Refrain]
