of our life's wild, restless sea;

"Christian, love me more than these."

serve and love thee best of all. Scripture: Matthew 4:18-20 Used With Tune: GALILEE

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John Ernest Bode Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 621 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Mission Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and always near me,
my Master and my friend;

if you are by my side,
nor wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me!

I see the sights that dazzle;
the tempting sounds I hear.
My foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer
and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
true guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too.
And, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
now give me grace to follow,
my Master and my friend. Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:10 Used With Tune: NYLAND
