1 Dear Saviour, each trial but brings me to thee;
Thy tender compassion my comfort must be;
I falter with weakness, but thou art so strong;
Oh, help me, dear Saviour, my strength and my song.
Refrain:
Draw me to thee,
Draw me to thee;
Saviour, who suffered the thorn-crown for me,
All must be blessing that leads me to thee.
2 Dear Saviour, each trial but brings me to thee,
Thou knowest my sorrow, my heart thou canst see;
Thy power is almighty, thy love is my rest,
I know thou wilt help me in ways which are best. [Refrain]
3 Dear Saviour, each trial but brings me to thee,
“In all points like tempted” thou feelest for me;
Oh, light are the burdens, dear Lord, that I bear,
While waking beside thee the load thou wilt share. [Refrain]
4 Dear Saviour, each trial but brings me to thee;
How soon at thy bidding all trouble will flee;
No cloud but will brighten when beams thy kind smile,
No grief can last longer than earth’s little while. [Refrain]
