O Jesus, I Have Promised

Author: John E. Bode Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #648 (1990) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; be thou forever near me, my Master and my Friend: I shall not fear the battle if thou art by my side, nor wander from the pathway if thou wilt be my guide. 2 O let me feel thee near me, the world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear: my foes are ever near me, around me and within; but, Jesus, draw thou nearer, and shield my soul from sin. 3 O let me hear thee speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; O speak, and make me listen, thou guardian of my soul. 4 O Jesus, thou hast promised to all who follow thee, that where thou art in glory, there shall thy servant be; and,Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, my Master and my Friend.
