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
And 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
I have a Father; to me He has given
A hope for eternity, blessed and true
And soon He will call me to meet Him in heaven
But, oh, that He’d let me bring you with me, too!
I have a robe; ’tis resplendent in whiteness
Awaiting in glory my wondering view
Oh, when I receive it all shining in brightness
Dear friend, could I see you receiving one, too!
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 O could I know it was given to you!

Alternate Verses:
When Jesus has found you, tell others the story
That my loving Savior is your Savior, too
Then pray that your Savior may bring them to glory
And prayer will be answered—’twas answered for you!
Speak of that Savior, that Father in heaven
That harp, crown, and robe which are waiting for you
That peace you possess, and that rest to be given
Still praying that Jesus may save them with you
