Lord Jesus Christ, My Savior Blest

Lord Je­sus Christ

my Sav­ior blest

My hope and my sal­va­tion!

I trust in Thee; de­liv­er me from mi­se­ry;

Thy Word’s my con­so­la­tion.

As Thou dost will

lead Thou me still

That I may tru­ly serve Thee

My God

I pray

teach me

Thy way to my last day

In Thy true faith pre­serve me.

Most heart­ily I trust in Thee;

Thy mer­cy fails me nev­er.

Dear Lord

abide;

My help­er tried

Thou cru­ci­fied

From ev­il keep me ev­er.

Now hence­forth must I put my trust

In Thee

O dear­est Sav­ior.

Thy com­fort choice

Thy Word and voice

my heart re­joice

Despite my ill be­hav­ior.

When sor­rows rise

my re­fuge lies

In Thy com­pass­ion ten­der.

Within Thine arm can naught alarm;

Keep me from harm

Be Thou my strong de­fend­er.

I have Thy Word

Christ Je­sus

Lord;

Thou nev­er wilt for­sake me.

This will I plead in time of need.

Oh

help with speed

When trou­bles ov­er­take me!

Grant

Lord

I pray

Thy grace each day

That I

Thy law rev­er­ing

May live with Thee

And hap­py be eter­nal­ly

Before Thy throne ap­pear­ing.
