At Jesus' Side

Verse 1

Saviour, keep me near Thy side, Humble, meek, and lowly; In Thy love may I abide, Earnest, pure, and holy.

Chorus

At Thy side, at Thy side, Purified, forgiven, Let me ever dwell, dear Lord, With the saints in heaven.

Verse 2

With my eyes still fixed on Thee, Oh, divinest treasure! I would sit and be content With Thy love’s full measure.

Verse 3

I would cast my sins on Thee While I seek Thy favor, Trusting in Thy precious blood, All-sufficient Saviour.

Verse 4

Saviour, keep me near the cross, Clinging, fondly clinging, Till I hear death’s welcome call, And the angels singing.

Verse 5

Till I pass on pinions soft, Through the golden portal, And my raptured soul shall know Joys that are immortal.
