So kindly He has led me to walk in wisdom’s way;
I pray for grace to help me with all my heart to say,
O blessed Savior, count on me.
Refrain:
Count on me, count on me,
For loving-hearted service glad and free;
Yes, count on me, count on me,
O blessed Savior, count on me.
2 I count on Thee, dear Master, for cleansing in Thy blood,
For constant streams of blessing, a never-failing flood;
To ever-new fruition I see Thy mercies bud,
O blessed Savior, count on me. [Refrain]
3 Now gird me for the battle when evil pow’rs oppose,
And give me faith and courage to conquer o’er Thy foes;
I pledge Thee my allegiance, my soul no other knows,
O blessed Savior, count on me. [Refrain]
4 I’ll bear another’s burden along a lonely way,
Or teach that burden-bearer with confidence to pray;
In service ever loyal, at home or far away,
O blessed Savior, count on me. [Refrain] Topics: The Gospel in the Christian Life Christian Life, Discipleship; Commitment/Dedication; Discipleship; Service Scripture: Ephesians 6:11 Languages: English Tune Title: COUNT ON ME
