Lyrics

I know a great Sav­ior, I do; don’t you?
I live by His fa­vor, I do; don’t you?
For grace I im­plore Him, I wor­ship before Him,
I love and ad­ore Him, I do; don’t you?

I need Him to lead me, I do; don’t you?
Heav’n’s man­na to feed me, I do; don’t you?
Whatever be­tide me, I need Him be­side me,
In mer­cy to hide me, I do; don’t you?

I love to be near Him, I do; don’t you?
He speaks and I hear Him, I do; don’t you?
For me He is car­ing, the cross I am bear­ing,
I love Him for shar­ing, I do; don’t you?

I want Him to use me, I do; don’t you?
For ser­vice to choose me, I do; don’t you?
I want Him to bless me, to own and con­fess me,
Completely pos­sess me, I do; don’t you?
