O Precious Savior!

Representative Text

1. O precious Savior!
O precious Savior!
Wearing the thorns on thy brow;
Help me to love thee,
Could I despise thee?
No, for thou lovest me now.

2. O precious Savior!
O precious Savior!
Bleeding on Calvary's tree;
Bearing such torment,
Suff'ring so freely,
Dying to save even me.

3. O precious Savior!
O precious Savior!
In the cold grave thou didst lie;
But thou hast risen
And gone to heaven,
Our home preparing on high.

4. O precious Savior!
O precious Savior!
Reigning o'er sin and the grave;
Grant us each moment,
Thro' thy atonement,
Grace all-abounding to save.
