Text: | Savior, Come In Today |
Author: | Lizzie DeArmond |
Tune: | [Long Thou hast waited outside of my heart] |
Composer: | J. M. Black |
1 Long Thou hast waited outside of my heart,
Saviour, come in today;
Tho’ I have grieved Thee, O do not depart,
Saviour, come in today.
Weary of sin, heavy-laden oppressed,
Seeking Thy mercy and longing for rest;
Enter my heart that I too may be blest,
Saviour, come in today.
Refrain:
Saviour, come in,
Saviour, come in;
Long Thou hast waited outside of my heart,
Saviour, come in today.
2 Make me a temple all holy within,
Saviour, come in today;
Grant me forgiveness, and cleanse me from sin,
Saviour, come in today.
Come in and teach me to know Thy will;
Help me to trust in Thy love and be still;
Guard me, and keep me secure from all ill,
Saviour, come in today. [Refrain]
3 Come and illumine my soul with Thy light,
Saviour, come in today;
Shine on my darkness, and all will be bright,
Saviour, come in today.
Teach me Thy patience, and help me to know
Some of the joys of Thy haven below;
More and more I in Thy likeness would grow,
Saviour, come in today. [Refrain]
