Savior, I by Faith Am Touching

lyricist: Bertha Fennell, ca. 1902
Composer: Henry Holmes

Savior

I by faith am touch­ing

Thee

the source of ev­ery good;

Virtue now

by faith am claim­ing

Thro’ the cleans­ing of Thy blood.

Touching Thee

new life is glow­ing

By Thy Spir­it’s burn­ing flame;

Cleansing

purg­ing

spir­it fill­ing

Glory to Thy ho­ly name!

Touching Thee in faith

I pro­mise

By Thine own un­fail­ing aid

Prompt obe­di­ence

in­stant serv­ice

When and where it should be paid.

Touching now Thine out­stretched scep­ter

O most migh­ty King of kings;

Of Thy full­ness now re­ceiv­ing

High I mount on ea­gle wings.

Grace and vir­tue

strength and wis­dom

All my need

by Thee sup­plied

Keep me touch­ing

keep me claim­ing

Keep me ev­er at Thy side.
