Lyrics 1 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: Ev'ry day, ev'ry hour Let me feel thy cleansing pow'r; May Thy tender love to me Bind me closer, closer, Lord, to Thee. 2 Through this changing world below, Lead me gently, gently as I go; Trusting Thee, I cannot stray, I can never, never lose my way. [Refrain] 3 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]
