Forever here my rest shall be
No. 166Forever here my rest shall be,
Close to Thy bleeding side;
This all my hope, and all my plea,
“For me the Savior died.”
Refrain:
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
I am sav’d by the blood
That was shed on the rugged Calvary;
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
You can be sav’d if you will,
Yes, the blood can make you free.
My dying Savior, and my God,
Fountain for guilt and sin,
Sprinkle me ever with Thy blood,
And cleanse and keep me clean.
Refrain:
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
I am sav’d by the blood
That was shed on the rugged Calvary;
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
You can be sav’d if you will,
Yes, the blood can make you free.
Wash me, and make me thus Thine own,
Wash me, and mine Thou art;
Wash me, but not my feet alone,
My hands, my head, my heart.
Refrain:
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
I am sav’d by the blood
That was shed on the rugged Calvary;
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
You can be sav’d if you will,
Yes, the blood can make you free.
Th’atonement of Thy blood apply,
Till faith to sight improve,
Till hope in full fruition die,
And all my soul be love.
Refrain:
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
I am sav’d by the blood
That was shed on the rugged Calvary;
I am sav’d, glory, glory,
You can be sav’d if you will,
Yes, the blood can make you free.
