65. Christ Is the Only Savior Mighty to Save

P.M.
1
Christ is the only Savior mighty to save,
 
He who suffered once for sins, and sank neath the wave;
 
Sing how the wrath of God on Calvary’s cross He bore;
 
How by death He conquered death and lives evermore.
 
Christ is the Savior, He never will fail;
 
All hope to save oneself could nothing avail;
 
Man is a total wreck, can never reach the shore.
 
All who trust in Jesus Christ are saved evermore.
2
Christ in that hour of darkness, lost ones to save,
 
Braved Himself the ocean depths, and battled the wave;
 
Though all Jehovah’s billows rolled o’er His head,
 
Son of Man and Son of God, He rose from the dead.
3
Oh, what a mighty Savior, Jesus who died!
 
Strong enough to bear His own above the angry tide;
 
Not e’en the feeblest saint will Christ ever fail,
 
Never will the gates of hell against Him prevail.
4
O blessed risen Savior, living today!
 
Living, too, to guide Thine own through all the stormy way;
 
None have the power to pluck Thy saints from Thine hand,
 
Thou wilt safely bring Thine own home to the better land.
