Precious thoughts

Author: M. L. Tilden Hymnal: Sacred Songs No. 2 #86 (1899) First Line: To the cross of Christ I cling Refrain First Line: Holdeth me, he holdeth me Lyrics: 1 To the cross of Christ I cling; Tho’ but faint my faith may be, Yet this tho’t doth comfort bring: Jesus holdeth me. Holdeth me, He holdeth me; Tho’ but faint my hold may be, Yet this tho’t doth comfort bring: Jesus holdeth me. 2 Low at Jesus’ feet I plead; Broken tho’ my prayer may be, Precious is the tho’t indeed: Jesus pleads for me. Pleads for me, He pleads for me; Broken tho’ my prayer may be, Precious is the tho’t indeed: Jesus pleads for me. 3 Can I say I love the Lord? Cold at times my love may be, Yet how precious is the word: Jesus loveth me. Loveth me, He loveth me; Cold at times my heart may be, Yet how precious is the word: Jesus loveth me.
