Communion with my Lord—
Can aught more precious be?
Is there a joy that can compare
To fellowship with Thee?
Ah, this I truly know—
No treasure is so sweet
As that to lay my burdens
Down at the Savior’s feet.
My weary, sinful heart,
So burdened and distressed—
I bring it to the Savior
And there find peace and rest
“Dear Precious, Heavenly Father.
My haven from the strife;
Please shelter from the battle
And help me on through life.
Be Thou forever near me
To lead and guide my way;
Such blessed sweet Communion
Will keep my day by day.”
