Text marked as lyrics
O Jesus I have promised to serve you to the end; be now and ever near me, my Master and my Friend. I shall not fear the battle if you are by my side, nor wander from the pathway if you will be my guide. O let me feel you 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 still nearer and shield my soul from sin! O let me hear you speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of selfwill. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; and speak to make me listen, O Guardian of my soul. O Jesus, you have promised to all who follow you that where you are in glory your servants shall be too. O guide me, call me, draw me, uphold me to the end, when you in glory take me, my Savior and my Friend.
