Tune: Aberystwyth
Jesus, lover of my soul,
let me to Your presence fly,
While the raging waters roll,
while the tempest still is high.
Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,
till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the harbour guide;
O receive my soul at last.
Other refuge have I none,
all my hope in you I see;
Leave, ah! leave me not alone,
still support and comfort me.
All my trust on You is stayed,
all my help from You I bring;
Cover my defenceless head
with the shadow of Your wing.
Will You not regard my call?
Will You not accept my prayer?
Low! I sink, I faint, I fall.
So, on You I cast my care;
Reach me out Your gracious hand!
Then I will Your strength receive,
By Your grace I’ll make my stand,
by Your death, behold I’ll live.
You, O Christ, are all I want,
more than all in You I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Your Name,
I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am;
You are full of truth and grace.
Boundless grace with You is found,
grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound;
make and keep me pure within.
Living fountain, now impart
all Your life and purity
Flow forever in my heart;
rise to all eternity.
