Hymn 82 - I Am Praying for You

I have a Saviour, He’s pleading in glory,

A dear loving Saviour, though earth friends be few;

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

And, oh, that my Saviour were your Saviour, too.

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!

When Christ has found you, tell others the story,

That my loving Saviour is your Saviour, too;

Then pray that your Saviour may bring them to glory,

And prayer will be answered – ’twas answered for you!

REFRAIN

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

For you I am praying,

I’m praying for you
