1 Praise the Savior, ye who know him!
Who can tell how much we owe him?
Gladly let us render to him
all we are and have.
2 Jesus is the name that charms us;
he for conflict fits and arms us;
nothing moves and nothing harms us
while we trust in him.
3 Trust in him, ye saints, forever;
he is faithful, changing never;
neither force nor guile can sever
those he loves from him.
4 Keep us, Lord, on thee relying
whether living, whether dying:
let no bitterness or sighing
mar our trust and praise.
