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 be my Guide.
To serve Thee to the end;
Be Thou forever near me,
My Master and my Friend;

Nor wander from the pathway
If Thou wilt be my Guide.

Oh, 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.

Oh, let me hear Thee speaking,
In accents clear and still,
Above the storms of passion,
The murmurs of self-will;
Oh, speak to reassure me,
To hasten, or control;
Oh, speak, and make me listen,
Thou Guardian of my soul.

That where Thou art in glory
There shall Thy servant be;
And Jesus, I have promised

Oh, give me grace to follow,
My Master and my Friend.

Oh, let me see Thy footmarks,
And in them plant mine own;
My hope to follow duly
Is in Thy strength alone.
Oh, guide me, call me, draw me,
Uphold me to the end;
And then to rest receive me,
My Savior and my Friend.
And in them plant mine own;
My hope to follow duly
Is in Thy strength alone.

What a reassuring song.
Lord you are my master and my friend. All that I have is You.
Even in this trying moment I have no single doubt that You will surely lift me up in victory. You are all that I have.

Thank You Jesus! Thank You Holy Spirit for singing this hymn in my heart. Thank You so much my dear Lord for speaking to me through this hymn and these words. Blessed be Your Holy name O Lord in Jesus name. Amen!

When Jesus comes into our life after conviction and repentance and forgiveness we experience our first love full of hope and trust. From that moment on Satan will try to take it away and undermine it with doubt, pride, temptation and trials. This song addresses all of these. Let's read or sing it often to be aware and keep our first love for Jesus.

It's really nice to be reasured once again about the promises of God, but my beloved let's not forget our ultimate goal, that is to populate the kingdom of heaven. Let's win more Souls for Christ. God bless you all.

In the prayer this morning, the hymn came to me, as I sang I was missing words. Never thought of searching on the net, know hymn will be on net but I heard the Spirit of God say you use to google. Google this one. Thanks a lot for this hymn. I'm blessed already. Thanks

I remember, just like it was yesterday, kneeling by the side of the river, where I was baptized. My tear filled eyes glowed with joy unspeakable, knowing that whatever things betide, I'll never walk alone.
