1. PASS me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While all others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Chorus: Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While all others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
2. Let me, at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.
3. Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace
4. Thou, the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me-
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee?
