I've a Savior kind and tender

I�ve a Savior, kind and tender,
I�ve a Savior full of grace;
And a smile of winning sweetness
Ever beams upon His face:
In my heart�s shrine of affection
He shall hold the highest place.

Refrain

How I love Him! How I love Him!
Since for me He bled and died;
How I love Him! Yes, I love Him
More than all the world beside.

For my sake He came from Heaven
To this world of sin and shame;
Bore my guilt, tho� He was guiltless,
And tho� blameless, took my blame:
Can I ever cease to love Him,
And His goodness to proclaim?

Refrain

Tho� I�ve often been unworthy,
He has constant been, and true;
Tho� I wronged Him, He forgave me
When I would my vows renew;
Tho� I spurned Him, He with kindness
My rebellious heart did woo.

Refrain

I�ve a Savior, kind and tender,
He would be your Savior, too;
Will you not accept the pardon
Which He freely offers you?
Take Him now as your Redeemer,
Earth has not a friend so true.

Refrain
