Blessed Savior, Who hast taught me
\nI should live to Thee alone,
\nAll these years Thy hand hath brought me
\nSince I first was made Thine own.
\nAt the font my vows were spoken
\nBy my parents in the Lord;
\nThat my vows shall be unbroken
\nAt the altar I record.<\/p>\n
I would trust in Thy protecting
\nWholly rest upon Thine arm,
\nFollow wholly Thy directing,
\nO my only Guard from harm.
\nMeet me now with Thy salvation
\nIn Thy Church\u2019s ordered way;
\nLet me feel Thy confirmation
\nIn Thy truth and fear today,<\/p>\n
So that might and firmness gaining,
\nHope in danger, joy in grief,
\nNow and evermore remaining
\nIn the one and true belief,
\nResting in the Savior\u2019s merit,
\nStrengthened with the Spirit\u2019s strength
\nWith Thy saints I may inherit
\nAll my Father\u2019s joy at length.<\/p>\n
