Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #393c (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Petition and Intercession; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last. 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on thee; Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me. All my trust on thee is stayed, All my help from thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of thy wing. A-men. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in thee I find. Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy Name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art, Freely let me take of thee; Spring thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYN
