The Finest of the Wheat No. 2 ‎#55

55. Keep me Ever

1 In Thy perfect peace divine,
Keep, O keep me ever;
Where my faith will brightest shine,
Keep, O keep me ever.

Refrain:
Let Thy heart my dwelling be,
Let Thy word abide in me;
In the path that leads to Thee,
Keep, O keep me ever.

2 At my post of duty still
Keep, O keep me ever;
Learning there Thy righteous will,
Keep, O keep me ever. [Refrain]

3 ‘Neath Thy all protecting wings,
Keep, O keep me ever;
By the soul refreshing springs,
Keep, O keep me ever. [Refrain]

4 Till my last expiring breath,
Keep, O keep me ever;
Thine in life, and Thine in death,
Keep, O keep me ever. [Refrain]
