Jesus, Lover of My Soul
Hymns
(1985, 2002 ed.), 102
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 Savior, hide,Till the storm of life is past.Safe into the haven guide;Oh, receive my soul at last.
2. Other refuge have I none;Hangs my helpless soul on thee.Leave, oh, 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 headWith the shadow of thy wing.
Jesus, Lover of My Soul
