193. Jesus, My Savior! Thou Art Mine

L.M.
by J.G. Deck
1
Jesus, my Savior! Thou art mine,
 
The Father’s gift of love divine;
 
All Thou hast done, and all Thou art,
 
Are now the portion of my heart.
“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21)
“My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.” (Song of Solomon 2:16)
“And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.” (1 John 4:14)
2
Poor, feeble, wretched, as I am,
 
I now can glory in Thy name;
 
Now cleansed in Thy most precious blood
 
And made the righteousness of God.
3
All that Thou hast Thou hast for me,
 
All my fresh springs are hid in Thee;
 
In Thee I live; while I confess
 
I nothing am, yet all possess.
4
O Savior, teach me to abide
 
Close sheltered at Thy wounded side,
 
Each hour receiving "grace on grace,"
 
Until I see Thee face to face.
