SS&S 1180: Come close to the Saviour, thy loving Redeemer,
1.Come close to the Saviour, thy loving Redeemer,
O sorrowing heart oppressed; . . .
Life's journey is dreary, thy spirit is weary,
Oh, come unto Him and rest,
Come close to the Saviour, oh, why
dost thou linger?
He knoweth thy heart oppressed; . . .
His promise believing, His message re-
Oh, come unto Him and rest! [ceiving,
Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest,
Looking to Jesus above; . . .
Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest
Safe in the arms of His love. . . .
2. Come close to the Saviour, He calleth thee gently;
Draw near to thy Father's throne : . . .
His eyes will behold thee, His mercy enfold thee,
Why carry thy grief alone!
Come close to the Saviour, oh, trust and remember,
Through trials our souls are blest; . . .
Whatever betide thee, thy Refuge will
hide thee,
Oh, come unto Him and rest!
3. Come close to thy Saviour, earth's
pleasures are fleeting,
But Jesus will care for thee; . . .
Whatever may grieve thee, He never will
leave thee,
Thy strength as thy day shall be.
Come close to the Saviour, while now
He is calling,
Come home to the pure and blest ; . . .
Where peace, like a river, flows onward
for ever,
Oh, come unto Him and rest!

Psalm 33
1 Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;
it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
2 Praise the Lord with the harp;
make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
3 Sing to him a new song;
play skillfully, and shout for joy.
4 For the word of the Lord is right and true;
he is faithful in all he does.
5 The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of his unfailing love.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea into jars;
he puts the deep into storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the people of the world revere him.
9 For he spoke, and it came to be;
he commanded, and it stood firm.
10 The Lord foils the plans of the nations;
he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
11 But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,
the purposes of his heart through all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people he chose for his inheritance.
13 From heaven the Lord looks down
and sees all mankind;
14 from his dwelling place he watches
all who live on earth—
15 he who forms the hearts of all,
who considers everything they do.
16 No king is saved by the size of his army;
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
17 A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot save.
18 But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
19 to deliver them from death
and keep them alive in famine.
20 We wait in hope for the Lord;
he is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name.
22 May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you.
