Come Closer, Child, To Me

Author: Susan R. Delmarter Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12264 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 D First Line: The sky above was cloudless Refrain First Line: Come, oh, come, thou troubled one Lyrics: 1 The sky above was cloudless, The sun shone clear and bright, The world seemed full of gladness, And birds sang with delight; But soon the sky grew gloomy, Dark shadows I could see, Ere long I heard a whisper, Come closer, child, to Me. Refrain: Come, oh, come, thou troubled one, For refuge come to Me! Come, oh come, the Savior pleads, Come closer, child to Me! 2 I knew it was the Savior, And quick ran to His side, And there in sweet submission Securely did abide; But still the sky grew darker, Till light I scarce could see; Again I heard the whisper, Come closer, child, to Me. [Refrain] 3 I then gave all to Jesus, And leaned upon His breast; He filled my soul with sweet peace, And gave me perfect rest; And now, tho’ storms are raging, My heart from fear is free, For I belong to Jesus, And He belongs to me. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: ONTARIO
