O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
Come near me, O my Saviour;
Thy tenderness reveal;  
Oh, let me know the sympathy
Which Thou for me dost feel,
I need Thee every moment;
Thine absence brings dismay;
But when the tempter hurls his darts,
'Twere death with Thee away!

Come near me, my Redeemer,
And never leave my side;  
My bark, when toss'd on trouble's sea,
The storm cannot outride,
Unless Thy word of power
Arrest the surging wave;
No voice but Thine its rage can quell
No arm but Thine can save.

Come near me, blessed Jesus,
I need Thee in my joy,  
No less than when the direst ills
My happiness destroy;
For when the sun shines o'er me
And flowers strew my way,
Without Thy wise and guiding hand
More easily I stray.

Be near me, mighty Saviour,
When comes the latest strife;  
For Thou hast through death's shadows pass'd,
And op'ed the gates of life;
And when among the ransom'd
I stand with crown and palm,
To Thee, Divine, unfailing Friend,
I'll raise eternal psalm.
