Savior, let me still abide
In the sha­dow of Thy wings;
Let me all my sor­row hide,
In the joy Thy mer­cy brings;
Draw me, keep me day by day,
Nearer, near­er, Lord to Thee;
All along my pil­grim way,
O my Sav­ior, lead Thou me.

To the cross my soul was brought,
To the cross, with all its grief;
There a heal­ing balm I sought,
There I found a sweet re­lief;
Yet for deep­er love I pray,
Love that clings alone to Thee;
All along my pil­grim way,
O my Sav­ior, lead Thou me.

Let me trust Thee more and more,
Let my will and Thine be one,
Till my war­fare here is o’er,
Till the vic­to­ry I have won;
In the light whose bless­èd ray
Shining down, by faith I see,
All along my pil­grim way,
O my Sav­ior, lead Thou me.
