Representative Text

1 We meet them all along life’s way,
Who hope, or trust, they are saved they say;
But I’ve a Friend with me alway,
And He’s my personal Saviour.

Refrain:
Yes, He’s my personal Saviour,
He walks with me and talks with me,
A present, personal Saviour,
He’s all in all to me.

2 My soul is free of doubts and fears,
That once o’ershadowed advancing years;
His promise sure will e’er endure,
O He’s my personal Saviour. [Refrain]

3 On mountain heights where sunlight glows,
Where blooms the beautiful “Sharon Rose;”
I feel His nearness, for I know
He is my personal Saviour. [Refrain]
