Barnes Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat #180 (1890) First Line: I know who came to die for me Lyrics: 1 I know who came to die for me, My soul to seek my hope to be; I know who pleads for me above, My advocate, in boundless love. Refrain: It is the Lord my Savior, It is the Lord my Savior, It is the Lord my Savior, In whom I now believe. 2 I know who gives permission sweet To lay my burdens at his feet, I know who will not turn away When in my faith I kneel to pray. [Refrain] 3 I know who dwells within my heart, His peace and Spirit to impart; I know who guides my steps aright, And keeps me ever in his sight. [Refrain] 4 I know who holds salvation’s cup, And as I drink my faith looks up; I know who has a place for me In mansions by the crystal sea! [Refrain] Tune Title: [I know who came to die for me]
