Savior Dear

1 I have something to impart, Saviour dear,
There’s singing in my heart none can hear;
And the reason I will tell,
It’s because I love Thee well,
And will with Thee ever dwell, Saviour dear.

Refrain:
Live with me, Saviour dear,
Saviour dear, live with me,
Not because great earthly gains I would see,
But I would be pure in heart,
And would know Thee as Thou art,
Wilt Thou not this boon impart, Saviour dear?

2 Not alone do I love Thee, Saviour dear,
I know Thou lovest me, I’ve no fear;
So my life is full of spring,
In my heart the joybells ring,
And I will Thy praises sing, Saviour dear. [Refrain]

3 Thou art all in all to me, Saviour dear,
None can compare with Thee, stay Thou near;
I’ve no fears when Thou art nigh,
Not a sorrow, nor a sigh,
But Thy smile can bid it fly, Saviour dear. [Refrain]

4 I will praise Thee while I live, Saviour dear,
For none like Thee can give words of cheer;
Fold me to Thy loving breast,
There’s no other spot so blest,
There I would forever rest, Saviour dear. [Refrain]
