331 O Jesus I Have Promised
[1]
O Jesus I have promised to serve thee to the end;
be thou forever near me my Master and my friend.
I shall not fear the battle if thou art by my side
nor wander from the pathway if thou wilt be my guide.

O let me feel thee near me! The world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me around me and within;
but Jesus draw thou nearer and shield my soul from sin.

that where thou art in glory there shall thy servant be.

O give me grace to follow my Master and my Friend.
