Jesus My Blest Redeemer – Hymn Lyric
Jesus, my blest Redeemer,
Draw me to Thy dear side;
Tenderly give me shelter,
Let me with Thee abide;
Never forsake nor leave me,
Keep me within Thy care,
If Thou wilt lead and guide me,
I have no need to fear.
Refrain:
Nearer, nearer,
let me ever be,
Nearer, nearer,
Blessed Lord, to Thee.
Jesus, my blest Redeemer,
Thou art my only plea;
I have no other refuge,
So I will cling to Thee;
When the fierce storms surround me,
Billows are rolling high,
O Thou blest Rock of Ages,
Shelter till storms pass by.
Refrain:
Nearer, nearer,
let me ever be,
Nearer, nearer,
Blessed Lord, to Thee.
Jesus, my blest Redeemer,
Still I will trust in Thee;
Friends may forsake and leave me,
True Thou wilt ever be;
When I shall reach death’s river,
I shall not be alone,
And when I stand in judgment,
Thou wilt claim me Thine own.
Refrain:
Nearer, nearer,
let me ever be,
Nearer, nearer,
Blessed Lord, to Thee.
