290. I Have Saviour, He's Pleading in Glory

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

Refrain:
For you I am praying,
For you I am praying,
For you I am praying,
I’m praying for you.

2 I have a Father; to me He has given
A hope for eternity, blessed and true;
And soon will He call me to meet Him in glory,
But oh, that He’d let me bring you with me, too! [Refrain]

3 When Jesus finds you, tell others the story,
That your loving Saviour is your Saviour, too;
Then pray that the Father will bring them to glory,
And prayer will be answered; ’twas answered for you! [Refrain]
