When lost among
the wild, dark mountains,
Far, far from Thee,
I heard Thy gentle voice, my Savior,
Calling in love to me.
Safe, within Thy arms of mercy,
Never more to roam;
O, let me rest in peace forever,
Safe in my heart’s dear home.
When lost among
the wild, dark mountains,
Sad was my cry,
Till softly came the words so tender,
“Fear not, for here am I.”
Safe, within Thy arms of mercy,
Never more to roam;
O, let me rest in peace forever,
Safe in my heart’s dear home.
O teach me to adore
and praise Thee,
Savior divine;
Now I have made a full surrender,
All that I am is Thine.
Safe, within Thy arms of mercy,
Never more to roam;
O, let me rest in peace forever,
Safe in my heart’s dear home.
Wherever Thou wilt lead, I’ll follow
Close, close to Thee;
One prayer alone
my soul is breathing:
Savior, abide with me.
Safe, within Thy arms of mercy,
Never more to roam;
O, let me rest in peace forever,
Safe in my heart’s dear home.
