279 | Draw Me to Thee. 8s & 6s
(668) Clinging to Christ.
O holy Savior! Friend unseen,
Since on thine arm thou bid’st me lean,
Help me, throughout life’s changing scene,
By faith to cling to thee!
Cho.—Help me cling to thee, Savior,
Help me cling to thee!
Help me, throughout life’s changing scene,
By faith to cling to thee!
2 Without a murmur I dismiss
My former dreams of earthly bliss;
My joy, my recompense be this,
Each hour to cling to thee!
3 Though faith and hope are often tried,
I ask not, need not, aught beside;
So safe, so calm, so satisfied,
The soul that clings to thee!
