O My Savior, Lifted

O my Sav­ior

lift­ed

From the earth for me

Draw me

in Thy mer­cy

Nearer un­to Thee.

Lift my earth­bound long­ings

Fix them

Lord

ab­ove;

Draw me with the mag­net

Of Thy migh­ty love.

Lord

Thine arms are stretch­ing

Ever far and wide

To en­fold Thy child­ren

To Thy lov­ing side.

And I come

O Je­sus;

Dare I turn away?

No! Thy love hath con­quered

And I come to­day.

Bringing all my bur­dens

Sorrow

sin

and care

At Thy feet I lay them

And I leave them there.
