Blessèd Savior, Who Hast Taught Me

Blessèd Sav­ior

who hast taught me

I should live to Thee alone

All these years Thy hand hath brought me

Since I first was made Thine own.

At the font my vows were spok­en

By my par­ents in the Lord;

That my vows shall be un­brok­en

At the al­tar I re­cord.

I would trust in Thy pro­tect­ion

Wholly rest up­on Thine arm

Follow whol­ly Thy di­rect­ion

O my only guard from harm.

Meet me now with Thy sal­va­tion

In Thy Church’s or­dered way;

Let me feel Thy con­firm­ation

In Thy truth and fear to­day

So that might and firm­ness gain­ing

Hope in dan­ger

joy in grief

Now and ev­er­more re­main­ing

In the one and true be­lief

Resting in the Sav­ior’s mer­it

Strengthened with the Spir­it’s strength

With Thy saints I may in­her­it

All my Fa­ther’s joy at length.
