He Saves Me (Flaville)

lyricist: William Flaville, 1882
Composer: John Sweney

My loving Sav­ior

I am Thine

I am Thine

I am Thine;

Saved

sweet­ly saved by love di­vine

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.

My soul so full still pants for more

The high­er up

we’d far­ther soar

And all Thy glo­ry would ex­plore;

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.

Saves me

saves me

So sweet­ly now He saves me;

My soul is full of love di­vine

So sweetly Je­sus saves me.

Oh

if this love be here so sweet

Here so sweet

here so sweet

Its full fru­ition who can mete?

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.

I’ll sing Thy prais­es here be­low

From con­quer­ing un­to con­quest go;

’Tis glo­ry all Thy love to know

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.

Tho’ here our tears will oft­en flow

Often flow

oft­en flow

Bereft and sor­row­ing oft we go

Yet Je­sus sweet­ly saves me.

For whilst I know Thou art so near

No dan­ger I can ever fear

The charge is still

Be of good cheer

For Je­sus sweet­ly saves me.

E’en tho’ we weep

’tis not in vain

Not in vain

not in vain;

E’en tho’ we die

to die is gain

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.

Who would mount up must needs bow down;

Who’ll bear the cross will wear the crown;

Whilst Je­sus smiles the world may frown

So sweet­ly Je­sus saves me.
