Verse 1

Leave me not, for I am lonely, And the way I cannot see; Lest I wander into danger, Keep me, Savior, close to Thee.

Chorus

Savior, Savior, Keep me near to Thee; Lest I wander into danger, Keep me, Savior, near to Thee.

Verse 2

Leave me not, for darkness gathers Round about the path I tread; Leave me not, but let my footsteps Ever by Thy hand be led.

Chorus

Savior, Savior, Keep me near to Thee; Lest I wander into danger, Keep me, Savior, near to Thee.

Verse 3

Leave me not, for sin is near me; With temptation life is fraught; Then through all life’s toilsome journey, O, my Savior, leave me not.

Chorus

Savior, Savior, Keep me near to Thee; Lest I wander into danger, Keep me, Savior, near to Thee.
