On the Safe Side

Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Songs for Work and Worship #43 (1900) First Line: Let others choose pleasures of sin if they may Refrain First Line: I'm on the safe side Lyrics: 1 Let others choose pleasures of sin if they may, But I have found something far better than they, For since the religion of Jesus I’ve tried My own conscience tells me I’m on the safe side. Chorus: I’m on the safe side, I’m on the safe side; In Christ my dear Savior thro’ faith I’ll abide, Then living or dying I’m on the safe side. 2 This world and its follies will soon pass away, But Christ and his kingdom endureth for aye; When I weigh earth’s pleasures, its snares and its pride Against heav’nly glory, I’m on the safe side. [Chorus] 3 The tempter with doubtings my soul would appall, By trying to whisper that death endeth all, But he cannot turn me from where I abide, For God’s Spirit tells me, I’m on the safe side. [Chorus] 4 Within God’s own Bible I find written down That for self-denial Christ promis’d a crown, A robe and a mansion just over the tide, O glory to Jesus, I’m on the safe side. [Chorus] Topics: Acceptance of Christ; Faith Languages: English Tune Title: [Let others choose pleasures of sin if they may]
