I love my blessed Saviour

Meter: 7.7.7.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I love my blessed Savior, I feel I'm in his favor, And I am his for ever, If I but faithful prove; And now I'm bound for Canaan, I feel my sins forgiven, And soon shall get to heaven, To sing redeeming love. 2. Poor sinners may deride me, And unbelievers chide me, But nothing shall divide me From Jesus, my best friend. Supported by his power, I long to see the hour That bids my spirit tower, And all my troubles end. 3. The pleasing time is hastening, My tottering frame is wasting While I'm engaged in praising, Impelled by his love. When yonder shining orders, Who sing on Canaan's borders, Shall bear me to the Lord there To praise his name above. Used With Tune: THE CHRISTIAN Text Sources: Zion Songster, p. 78
