The grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
1 Timothy 1:14
Words & Music: Grant C. Tullar, The Bible School Hymnal (New York: Tullar-Meredith, 1907), number 105 (🔊 pdf nwc).
Jesus the Savior, dying on Calv’ry,
Purchased my pardon, setting me free.
Love so abundant, should I not serve Him,
When He so gladly suffered for me?
Refrain
Lord, I am Thine, Savior divine,
O what a joy
Just to know, Thou art mine.
O what a Savior, tender and loving,
Guarding my footsteps lest I should stray;
Love so abundant, leading me ever,
Out of the darkness into the day.
Refrain
Constant companion, leaving me never,
Bidding me follow close by Thy side;
He is my refuge, safely I shelter,
Knowing He loves me, whate’er betide.
