368. Savior, More than Life to Me

1 Savior, more than life to me,
I am clinging, clinging, close to Thee;
Let Thy precious blood, applied,
Keep me ever, ever near Thy side.

Chorus:
Every day, every hour,
Let me feel Thy cleansing pow’r;
May Thy tender love to me
Bind me closer, closer, Lord to Thee.

2 Through this changing world below,
Lead me gently, gently as I go;
Trusting Thee, I cannot stray--
I can never, never lose my way. (Chorus)

3 Let me love Thee more and more
Till this fleeting, fleeting life is o’er;
Till my soul is lost in love
In a brighter, brighter world above. (Chorus)
