Jesus, my Saviour, Brother, Friend, On whom I cast my every care, On whom for all things I depend-- Inspire, and then accept, my prayer. If I have tasted of Thy grace-- The grace that sure salvation brings; If with me now Thy Spirit stays, And, hov'ring, hides me in His wings; Still let Him with my weakness stay, Nor for a moment's space depart; Evil and danger turn away, And keep, till He renews, my heart. If to the right or left I stray, His voice behind me may I hear-- Return, and walk in Christ, thy way; Fly back to Christ, for sin is near! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE GRASSHOPPER AND THE CRICKET by JAMES HENRY LEIGH HUNT ON REFUSAL OF AID BETWEEN NATIONS by DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI A WAYFARING SONG by HENRY VAN DYKE ELEGY FOR A DEAD KING by AL-KUTANDI A LITTLE PARABLE by ANNE REEVE ALDRICH ALEC YEATON'S SON; GLOUCESTER, AUGUST, 1720 by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH |
