1  I have a Savior, He's pleading in glory,

    A dear loving Savior, though earth-friends be few;

    And now He is watching in tenderness o'er me,

    But oh, that my Savior were your Savior too!

 2  I have a Father: to me He has given

    A hope for eternity, blessed and true;

    He'll call me one day to the kingdom of heaven,

    But oh, that He'd let me bring you with me too!

 3  I have a peace: it is calm as a river,

    A peace that the friends of this world never knew;

    My Savior alone is its Author and Giver,

    And oh, could I know it was given to you!
