5914. Savior, I Have Need of Thee

1. Savior, I have need of Thee;
Faith is faint, and hope is weak;
Far and farther seems to be
That fair home of Thine I seek;
Home and rest, and peace divine
From my seeking seem to flee;
Yet, dear Savior, I am Thine;
Come, for I have need of Thee.

2. Let me know that love of Thine
Which all knowledge passeth still;
Let me feel Thy peace divine:
All my spirit sweetly fill;
Life of my life wilt Thou be;
Then betide whatever may,
It shall be enough for me,
I shall walk with Thee today.
