Author: J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #109 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Blessed Savior, who hast taught me
I should live to Thee alone;
All these years Thy hand hath brought me
Since I first was made Thine own.
At the font my vows were spoken
By my parents in the Lord,
That my vows shall be unbroken,
At the altar I record.
2 I would trust in Thy protecting
Wholly rest upon Thine arm;
Follow wholly Thy directing,
O my only guard from harm!
Meet me now with Thy salvation,
In the Church’s ordered way;
Let me feel Thy confirmation
In Thy truth and fear today:
3 So that, might and firmness gaining,
Hope in danger, joy in grief,
Now and evermore remaining
In the one and true belief;
Resting in my Savior’s merit,
Strengthened, with the Spirit’s strength,
With Thy Church I may inherit
All my Father’s joy at length. Topics: The Church Confirmation; The Church Confirmation; Abiding in Christ Tune Title: [Blessed Savior, who hast taught me]
