SAVIOUR, MORE THAN LIFE TO ME

Saviour, more than life to me
I am clinging, clinging close to Thee;
Let Thy precious blood applied,
Keep me ever, ever near Thy side.

Through this changing world below,
Lead me gently, gently as I go;
Trusting Thee I cannot stray,
I can never, never lose my way.

Let me love Thee more and more,
Till this fleeting, fleeting life is o’er;
Till my soul is lost in love
In a brighter, brighter world above.

[chorus]
Every day, every hour,
Let me feel Thy cleansing power;
May Thy tender love to me
Bind me closer, closer, Lord, to Thee.
