1 In ev’ry condition of life here below,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
He loves me, and guides me, protects from each foe,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

Chorus:
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
When foes would annoy,
He fills me with joy!
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

2 Where sorrows encompass my way on each hand,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
He scatters the darkness and helps me to stand,
Oh, what a Savior is mine! [Chorus]

3 When friends here forsake me, as often they do,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
This “friend of the fatherless” ever is true,
Oh, what a Savior is mine! [Chorus]

4 My weary, lost brother, this Savior wants you,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
To share in the glory awaiting the true,
Oh, what a Savior is mine! [Chorus]
