Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: Joy to the World #7 (1879) First Line: Jesus, let me cling to Thee Refrain First Line: In the healing fount divine Lyrics: 1 Jesus, let me cling to Thee,
Show thy mercy now to me;
I am lonely, weak, oppressed;
I am weary, give me rest.
Chorus:
In the healing fount divine
Cleanse my heart and seal me thine;
Thine forever would I be
Jesus, let me cling to Thee.
2 Should I wander from thy side,
Thou, my ever faithful guide,
Wilt restore me to the right,
And in darkness grant me light. [Chorus]
3 Thou wilt hear my soul's complaint,
Thou wilt cheer me when I faint,
Thou hast suffered death for me,
Jesus, let me cling to Thee. [Chorus]
4 Fold me in thy arms of love,
Give me comfort from above;
May thy spirit's gentle power
Save and keep me hour by hour. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Jesus, let me cling to Thee]
Let Me Cling to Thee
