Author: J. C. Aaberg; Hans. Chr. Stehn Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #284 (1930) Meter: 4.4.7.4.4.4.7 First Line: Lord Jesus Christ, My Savior blest Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ,
My Savior blest,
My refuge and salvation,
I trust in Thee;
Abide in me;
Thy Word shall be
My hope and consolation.
2 I will confide,
Whate'er betide,
In Thy compassion tender.
When grief and stress
My heart oppress,
Thou wilt redress
And consolation render.
3 When I must weep
In sorrow deep,
Thy loving care enfolds me,
I have no fear
When Thou art near,
My Savior dear;
Thy saving hand upholds me.
4 Lord, I would be
Always with Thee,
Wherever Thou wilt have me.
Do Thou control
My heart and soul
And make me whole;
Thy grace alone can save me.
5 Yea, help us, Lord,
With one accord
To love and serve Thee solely,
That henceforth we
May dwell with Thee
In jubilee
And in Thy presence holy.
