Sweetly and soft­ly my Sav­ior is call­ing,
Gently in tones sweet and low;
Calming the storms in my in­ward life beat­ing,
And hush­ing my soul and its woe.

Refrain

Then sweet­ly breathe on me Thy life,
And qui­et all doubt­ing with­in;
Yes, sweet­ly breathe on me Thy life,
That my soul may be free from all sin.

Stronger and strong­er my Sav­ior is hold­ing,
Keeping me close in His arms;
Shielding me safe when the bil­lows are roll­ing,
And rest­ing my soul from alarms.

Refrain

Deeper and deep­er my Sav­ior is com­ing
Into my heart ev­ery day;
Guarding my foot­steps while on this life’s jour­ney,
With light from yon Hea­ven’s own ray.

Refrain

Daily, yes, dai­ly I’m know­ing Him bet­ter,
Learning—close down at His feet;
Peace o’er my soul rush­es on like a ri­ver,
And hearts in true uni­son beat.
