The New Sabbath School Hosanna ‎#181c

181c. Saviour, source of every blessing

1 Saviour, source of every blessing,
Tune my heart to grateful lays;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for ceaseless songs of praise.

2 Teach me some melodious measure,
Sung by raptured saints above;
Fill my soul with sacred pleasure,
While I sing redeeming love.

3 Thou didst seek me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
Thou, to save my soul from danger,
Didst redeem me with thy blood.

4 By thy hand, restored, defended,
Safe through life thus far I've come,
Safe, O Lord, when life is ended,
Bring me to my heavenly home.
