Jesus, Lover of My Soul #2 (Charles Wesley)

Jesus, Lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly,

While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high!

Hide me O my Savior hide, ‘’til the storm of life is past,

Safe into the haven guide. Oh, receive my soul at last!

 

Other refuge have I none; hangs my helpless soul on Thee.

Leave, ah, leave me not alone; Still support and comfort me!

All my trust on Thee is stayed; all my help from Thee I bring.

Cover my defenseless head, with the shadow of Thy wing.

 

Thou, O Christ, art all I want; more than all in Thee I find.

Raise the fallen cheer the faint, heal the sick and lead the blind.

Just and holy is Thy name; I am all unrighteousness.

False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace.

 

Plenteous grace with Thee is found, grace to cover all my sin.

Let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within.

Thou of life the Fountain art, freely let me take of Thee.

Spring Thou up within my heart; rise to all eternity.
