Author: Rev. John S. B. Monsell Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #114 (1929) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: To Thee, O dear, dear Savior! Lyrics: 1 To Thee, O dear, dear Savior!
My spirit turns for rest,
My peace is in Thy favor,
My pillow on Thy breast;
Though all the world deceive me,
I know that I am Thine,
And Thou wilt never leave me,
O blessed Savior mine.
2 In Thee my trust abideth,
On Thee my hope relies,
O Thou whose love provideth
For all beneath the skies;
O Thou whose mercy found me,
From bondage set me free,
And then forever bound me
With three-fold cords to Thee.
3 Alas, that I should ever
Have failed in love to Thee,
The only One who never
Forgot or slighted me!
O for that choicest blessing
Of living in Thy love,
And thus on earth possessing
A peace like that above. Topics: Jesus Christ Love of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SAVOY CHAPEL
To Thee, O Dear, Dear Savior
