I have found, I have found the way
|
|
| 1. | I have found, I have found the way |
| | Which leads to heav'nly rest; |
| | I have found, I have found the peace |
| | Which filled my Savior's breast. |
| | O friends in the desert past, |
| | Come, join in the prayer and praise; |
| | E'en now He waits our cry, |
| | The Savior who saves always. |
| 2. | He hath taken our sins away, |
| | When on Calv'ry's cross He bled; |
| | The disease of our soul He heals |
| | By His Spirit freely shed; |
| | Though Satan hath pierced us deep, |
| | And great the grace each prays; |
| | The more we prove His might, |
| | The Savior who saves always. |
| 3. | Long alas! in the gloom I fought, |
| | 'Mid strife of wind and waves; |
| | Jesus seemed only this to me: |
| | A Savior who sometimes saves. |
| | But sweet are the light and calm |
| | That fill my happy days, |
| | Since now I fully trust |
| | The Savior who saves always. |
| 4. | O my Sun and my Shield art Thou! |
| | Lead on where Thou hast trod; |
| | My Salvation, my Joy, my Song, |
| | My Brother, and yet my God. |
| | Whate'er then my life betide, |
| | I now can trust and praise; |
| | Each moment Thou wilt save, |
| | O Savior, who sav'st always. |
