Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Laudes Domini #266 (1890) First Line: O Holy Saviour! Friend unseen Lyrics: 1 O Holy Saviour! Friend unseen,
Since on thine arm thou bid'st me lean,
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 What though the world deceitful prove,
And earthly friends and hopes remove;
With patient, uncomplaining love,
Still would I cling to thee.
4 Though oft I seem to tread alone
Life's dreary waste, with thorns o'ergrown,
Thy voice of love, in gentlest tone,
Still whispers, "Cling to me!"
5 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! Topics: The Gospel: Atonement Accepted; Atonement Accepted; Repentance; Atonement Accepted; Repentance; Ashamed of Jesus Languages: English Tune Title: FLEMMING
