Saviour! I follow on

1

Saviour! I follow on,Guided by thee,Seeing not yet the handThat leadeth me;Hushed be my heart and still,Fear I no further ill;Only to meet thy willMy will shall be.

2

Riven the rock for meThirst to relieve,Manna from heaven fallsFresh every eve;Never a want severeCauseth my eye a tear,But thou dost whisper near,"Only believe!"

3

Often to Marah's brinkHave 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 walkCloser with thee;Led by thy guiding hand,Ever to be;Constantly near thy side,Quickened and purified,Living for him who diedFreely for me.
