Sheet music
- 1Savior, more than life to me,I am clinging, clinging close to Thee;Let Thy precious blood appliedKeep me ever, ever near Thy side.Ev’ry day, ev’ry hour,Let me feel Thy cleansing pow’r,May Thy tender love to meBind me closer, closer, Lord to Thee.
- 2Let me love Thee more and more,Till this fleeting, fleeting life is o’er;Till my soul is lost in love,In a brighter, brighter world above.Ev’ry day, ev’ry hour,Let me feel Thy cleansing pow’r,May Thy tender love to meBind me closer, closer, Lord to Thee.
