The Convention Hymnal Title of Hymn 60: Jesus, Lover of My Soul by Charles Wesley

1 Jesus, lover of my soul,
    Let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll,
    While the tempest still is high!
Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,
    Till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide,
    O receive my soul at last!
 
2 Other refuge have I none;
    Hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
Leave, O leave me not alone,
    Still support and comfort me;
All my trust on Thee is stayed,
    All my help from Thee I bring;
Cover my defenseless head
    With the shadow of Thy wing!
 
3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want;
    More than all in Thee I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
    Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy name;
    I am all unrighteousness;
Vile and full of sin I am,
    Thou art full of truth and grace.
Charles Wesley
