 1 

I have a Savior, He's pleading in glory,

A dear loving Savior, though earth-friends be few;

And now He is watching in tenderness o'er me,

But oh, that my Savior were your Savior too!

 

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;

He'll call me one day to the kingdom of heaven,

But oh, that He'd let me bring you with me too!

 

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

I'm praying for you.

 
 3 

I have a peace: it is calm as a river,

A peace that the friends of this world never knew;

My Savior alone is its Author and Giver,

And oh, could I know it was given to you!

 

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

I'm praying for you.
