Jesus, my Savior, look on me,
For I am weary and oppressed;
I come to cast myself on Thee:
Thou art my Rest.
Look down on me, for I am weak;
I feel the toilsome journey??Ts length;
Thine aid omnipotent I seek:
Thou art my Strength.
I am bewildered on my way,
Dark and tempestuous is the night;
O send Thou forth some cheering ray:
Thou art my Light.
I hear the storms around me rise;
But when I dread th??Timpending shock,
My spirit to the Refuge flies:
Thou art my Rock.
Standing alone on Jordan??Ts brink,
In that tremendous latest strife,
Thou will not suffer me to sink:
Thou art my Life.
Thou wilt my every want supply,
E??Ten to the end, whate??Ter befall;
Through life, in death, eternally,
Thou art my All.
