New Songs of the Gospel ‎#58

58. Jesus, My Savior

1 Jesus, my Savior,
Keep me ever near Thy side,
Help me to trust Thee,
In Thy love abide;
When the storms assail me,
And the billows ‘round me roll,
In Thy bosom fold me,
Hid my troubled soul.

Refrain:
Jesus, my Savior,
Leave, oh, leave me not alone,
Ever, forever,
Make Thy presence known.

2 Comfort in sorrow,
In affliction be my friend;
Draw me still nearer,
Lead me to the end;
When the world forsakes me,
And its friendship proves untrue,
In Thy tender mercy
Gently lead me through. [Refrain]

3 Down in the valley
Leave me not alone to die,
When time is fleeting,
Jesus, draw me nigh.
Just a little closer,
Nearer to Thy loving breast,
When we cross the river
To the land of rest. [Refrain]
