Author: H. de F. Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Precious Redeemer, my brother and friend Refrain First Line: Longing dear Saviour, I'm longing for Thee! Lyrics: 1 Precious Redeemer, my brother and friend, Dearer than all is my Saviour; On me His grace and His blessings descend, I’m longing, dear Saviour, for Thee. Refrain: Longing, dear Saviour, I’m longing for Thee! Hasten, glad moment, when Jesus I’ll see; Longing to be Saviour, with Thee, Longing, I’m longing for Jesus. 2 Earth holds no charm that can lure me away, Kept by the love of my Saviour; Sweeter He grows ev’ry step of the way, I’m longing, dear Saviour, for Thee. [Refrain] 3 Deeper than ocean and boundless as space, Such is the love of my Saviour; Soul-thrilling rapture to look in His face, I’m longing, dear Saviour, for Thee. [Refrain] 4 Friends here may fail me, but Jesus is true; O what a wonderful Saviour; His love sufficient will carry me thro’, I’m longing, dear Saviour, for Thee.
