Author: Charles S. Robinson Appears in 126 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 16:15 First Line: Saviour! I follow on Lyrics: 1 Saviour! I follow on,
Guided by thee,
Seeing not yet the hand
That leadeth me;
Hushed be my heart and still,
Fear I no further ill;
Only to meet thy will
My will shall be.
2 Riven the rock for me
Thirst to relieve,
Manna from heaven falls
Fresh every eve;
Never a want severe
Causeth my eye a tear,
But thou dost whisper near,
"Only believe!"
3 Often to Marah's brink
Have I been brought;
Shrinking the cup to drink,
Help I have sought;
And with the prayer's ascent,
Jesus the branch hath rent--
Quickly relief hath sent,
Sweetening the draught.
4 Saviour! I long to walk
Closer with thee;
Led by thy guiding hand,
Ever to be;
Constantly near thy side,
Quickened and purified,
Living for him who died
Freely for me! Topics: Afflictions; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Declenson spiritual Used With Tune: EDEN
