O Jesus I Have Promised

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

O Jesus I have promised

To serve Thee to the end;

Be Thou foe ever near me,

My Master and my friend:

I shall not fear the battle

If Thou art by my side,

Nor wander from the pathway

If Thou wilt be my guide.



3) O let me hear Thee speaking

In accents clear and still,

Above the storms of passion,

The murmers of self will;

O speak to reassure me,

To hasten or control;

O speak, and make me listen,

Thou guardian of my soul.



4) O Jesus, Thou hast promised,

To all who follow Thee,

That where Thou art in glory

There shall Thy servant be;

And, Jesus I have promised

To serve Thee to the end:

O give me grace to follow,

My master and my Friend.



5) O let me see Thy footmarks,

And in them plant mine own:

My hope to follow duly

Is in Thy strength alone.

O guide me, call me, draw me,

Uphold me to the end;

And then in heaven receive me,

My Saviour and my Friend.
