Text:	Saviour, We Come to Thee
Author:	E. E. Hewitt
Tune:	[Saviour, we come to thee]
Composer:	Wm. J. Kirkpatrick

1 Saviour, we come to thee,
In lowly pray’r,
Here at thy mercy-seat,
Leaving our care.
Thou wilt forgive our sin,
Kindly receive;
Speak thou in tender tones;
Lord, we believe.

2 Saviour, we come to thee,
With grateful praise,
Thanks for the blessings sweet,
Crowing our days.
Praise for thy boundless grace,
Unfailing might,
Thanks that thy smile can cheer
Sorrow’s dark night.

3 Saviour, we come to thee,
Drawn by thy love;
Help us to love thee more,
All friends above.
O bind our hearts to thee,
Teach us thy will;
Now may thy precious word,
Like dews distill.
