Lyrics

Have you found the Savior precious,
More than all on earth beside,
He who gave His life to save you,
Who for your transgressions died?

Refrain

Have you found the Savior precious?
Can you slight such love as this?
Surely there can be no greater:
Would you give your life for His?

Have you found the Savior precious,
Who for you passed thro’ the grave,
Broke the bonds of death asunder,
Have you proved His power to save?

Refrain

Have you found the Savior precious?
Do you know the peace and rest
That doth fill each soul that trusts Him;
Who in his deep love is blest?

Refrain

Have you found the Savior precious?
Seek Him then without delay,
Taste the sweetness of His pardon,
He will take our sins away.

Refrain
