I Have Given Up All To My Savior So Dear,
And His Praises I Ever Will Sing;
And Though All Of This World Should Forsake Me While Here,
To My Savior I Ever Will Cling.

He Leads Me Each Day In The Heavenly Way,
So Onward And Upward I’ll Climb;
In The Straight, Narrow Way, I’m Determined To Stay,
Till I Leave This Old Dark World Behind.

I’ve Received Such Great Light, And Its Beams Are So Bright,
That The Past Of My Life’s Way Seems Dim;
I Will Walk In This Light By Day And By Night,
Still Closer I’ll Cling Unto Him.

Some Think I’ve Done Wrong By Leaving The Throng,
Who Abide In Sectarian Strife;
But I’ve Only Come Back Where God’s People Belong,
From Babel I Fled For My Life.

I Have A Good Home In The Fold Of My Lord,
Where His Sanctified Children All Dwell;
I Am Glad That I Heard The Truth From His Word,
And Now With My Soul All Is Well.

Someday When My Life And Its Labors Are O’er,
And My Sheaves At His Feet I Lay Down,
I Will Meet All The Saints On That Beautiful Shore,
And Receive A Bright, Glittering Crown.
