Author: Eliza E. Hewitt Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8863 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: My Savior reaches from the throne Refrain First Line: God helping me, here will I stand Lyrics: 1 My Savior reaches from the throne,
His bleeding hand to me,
And asks that I should pledge my own
In loving loyalty.
Refrain:
God helping me, here will I stand,
Close by my Savior’s side;
I pledge my heart, I pledge my hand,
To Christ, the Crucified.
2 O may His holy will be done,
In me, and by me, still;
And while my moments swiftly run,
May they His plans fulfill. [Refrain]
3 I lay myself at Jesus’ feet,
That He would make me now
For sacrifice and service meet,
And help me keep my vow. [Refrain]
4 Since Thou hast bought me with Thy blood,
I must be wholly Thine;
Keep me beneath the cleansing flood,
Be Thou my life divine. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: LA PLATA
