I have a Savior, He’s pleading in glory (revised)

I have a Savior, He’s pleading in glory,
A dear loving Savior, though earth-friends be few;
And now He is watching in tenderness o’er me,
But oh, that my Savior were your Savior too!

I have a Father: to me He has given
A hope for eternity, blessed and true;
He’ll call me one day to the kingdom of heaven,
But, oh, that He’d let me bring you with me too!

I have a joy like the sea billows swelling—
My Savior’s borne off all my sins, through and through,
And now He is even right here in me dwelling;
But, oh, that my Savior this joy would give you!

I have a peace: it is calm as a river,
A peace that the friends of this world never knew;
My Savior alone is its Author and Giver,
And, oh, could I know it was given to you!

When Jesus has found you, tell friends with elation
That my loving Savior is your Savior, too;
Then pray that your Savior may bring them salvation,
And prayer will be answered—’twas answered for you!
