Timely Expressions- He is More Than Life to Me

Savior, more than life to me,
I am clinging, clinging close to Thee;
Let Thy precious blood applied,
Keep me ever, ever near Thy side.

Refrain:
Every day, every hour,
Let me feel thy cleansing power;
May Thy tender love to me
Bind me closer, closer, Lord, to Thee.

 

Through this changing world below,
Lead me gently, gently as I go;
Trusting Thee, I cannot stray and,
I can never, never lose my way. [Refrain]

 

Let 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. [Refrain]

 

Dear God, You desire that I treasure You above all things, including my life. I am willing to give away all that I have, am or desire to become just so I can cling close to You. The price You paid for my salvation is so great it cost You Your blood. I am reminded that if I value my life in this world more than I value my Precious Saviour, I cannot be His disciple. The treasures of this world are constantly fading away yet its beauty is a snare for the undiscerning. I need You to guide me as I pass through this land of pilgrimage that lasts for a very short time so that I will not be lost in the midst of the crowd. There is no beauty that can be compared to that which You possess and so I ask that You help me to grow in my love for You until I see You in glory. AMEN.
