288 主耶穌,我曾應許
主耶穌,我曾應許事奉祢到永久,
求主常與我親近,作我良師密友;
若主常與我同在,我必不怕戰場,
若主常領我行路,我必不至迷亡。
容我活在這世上,時常與祢親近,
我見迷亂的景物,我聞誘惑聲音;
我心深處與身外,常有仇敵相侵;
但耶穌與我親近,將我靈魂保存。
主耶穌,祢曾應許跟隨祢的門徒:
祢將在榮耀福地,與眾僕人同住;
主耶穌,我曾應許事奉祢到永久;
求賜我慈愛恩惠,作我良師密友。
288 O Jesus I Have Promised
Lyrics:
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 will be my guide.
2. 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.
3. O Jesus thou hast promised to all who follow thee. that where thou art in glory there shall my servant be. And Jesus I have promised to serve thee to the end. O give me grace to follow my master and my friend
