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.
