O Jesus, I Have Promised
To Serve Thee To The End;
Be Thou Forever Near Me,
My Master And My Friend;
I Shall Not Fear The Battle
If Thou Art By My Side,
Nor Wander From The Pathway
If Thou Wilt Be My Guide.
O Let Me Feel Thee Near Me;
The World Is Ever Near;
I See The Sights That Dazzle,
The Tempting Sounds I Hear;
My Foes Are Ever Near Me,
Around Me And Within;
But Jesus, Draw Thou Nearer,
And Shield My Soul From Sin.
O Let Me Hear Thee Speaking
In Accents Clear And Still,
Above The Storms Of Passion,
The Murmurs Of Self-Will;
O Speak To Reassure Me,
To Hasten, Or Control;
O Speak, And Make Me Listen,
Thou Guardian Of My Soul.
O Jesus, Thou Hast Promised
To All Who Follow Thee
That Where Thou Art In Glory
There Shall Thy Servants Be;
And, Jesus, I Have Promised
To Serve Thee To The End;
O Give Me Grace To Follow
My Master And My Friend.
O Let Me See Thy Footmarks,
And In Them Plant Mine Own;
My Hope To Follow Duly
Is In Thy Strength Alone.
O Guide Me, Call Me, Draw Me,
Uphold Me To The End;
And Then In Heaven Receive Me,
My Saviour And My Friend.
