Blessed Saviour, I am thine;
O, what grace, what power divine,
Purchased by Thy precious blood:
Thus I’m made “a child of God.”
Naught shall take away from me
That blest bond of unity,
Which I hold with Christ the Lord,
Since I’m made a child of God.
O, that blessed, happy thought,
To know that Jesus Christ has taught
This heart of mine to lisp and say,
“Lord Jesus, come, no more delay.”
Yes, blessed Saviour, soon Thou’lt come,
To take Thy waiting people home,
That we may there forever be
Thrice happy, blessed Lord with Thee.
