My Heart Is Clinging

My heart is cling­ing to Christ

my Sav­ior

He ever keeps me in His sweet fa­vor;

The way grows bright­er

my bur­dens light­er

For Je­sus is for ev­er­more my Lord and king.

My heart is cling­ing

my soul is sing­ing

Glad hal­le­lu­jahs to my Sav­ior’s name I bring;

I am abid­ing

in Him con­fid­ing;

For Je­sus is for ev­er­more my Lord and king.

When sha­dows ga­ther

His grace re­ceiv­ing

’Tis sweet to trust Him

His word be­liev­ing;

My bur­dens bear­ing

my sor­rows shar­ing

For Je­sus is for ev­er­more my Lord and king.

In yon­der man­sions for­ev­er dwell­ing

Thro’ end­less ag­es the chor­us swell­ing;

Ever in glo­ry

I’ll sing the sto­ry

For Je­sus is for ev­er­more my Lord and king.
