Author: M. Loy; J. Scheffler Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #165 (1930) Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Jesus, Savior, come to me! Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Savior, come to me!
Let me ever be with Thee;
Come, and nevermore depart,
Thou who reignest in my heart.
2 Ever, Lord, for Thee I sigh,
Nothing else can satisfy;
Ever do I cry to Thee:
Jesus, Jesus, come to me!
3 Earthly joys can give no peace,
Ne'er can bid my longings cease;
Still to have my Jesus near,
This is all my pleasure here.
4 None shall claim my heart beside,
None but Jesus crucified;
Savior, I am only Thine,
Other love shall ne'er be mine. A-men.
5 Thou alone, my God and Lord,
Art my glory and reward;
Evermore I cry to Thee:
Jesus, Jesus, come to me!
6 Patiently I wait and pray,
Jesus, do not say me nay;
That when death shall come to me,
Thou shalt still my Jesus be.
