Pass me not, O gentle Savior

1
Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
  Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
  Do not pass me by.
 
Savior, Savior,
  Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
    Do not pass me by.
2
Let me at Thy throne of mercy
  Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
  Help my unbelief.
3
Trusting only in Thy merit,
  Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
  Save me by Thy grace.
4
Thou the spring of all my comfort,
  More than life to me;
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
  Whom in heaven but Thee?

This is a song that brings back inspiring memories of God's divine intervention in my life when I was very poor an orphan left to fend for myself, Jesus did not overlook my greatest needs but made adequate arrangement for my continuous sustenance. The song always remind me that He did not pass me by.

I love these hymns, especially those by Fanny Crosby.

The second line of verse 3, "Heal my wounded, broken spirit," has special meaning for me. Several years after the event, I was still suffering from the wound of a praise and worship leader who had split our church. I wondered if I would ever recover. The same day I mused that thought, I received a greeting card in the mail with these words from Jeremiah 30:17b (KJV)

"and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD;"

How wondrous of the Lord to answer me immediately, both acknowledging my wounds and answering my yearning question. I remember the words of Jesus in Luke 4:18 (KJV)

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised." Jesus is anointed to heal our souls in every way. This day I again give thanks to Jesus, the One Who Heals my Wounds.

I love this song because it's so inspiring. We should always remember even though we have infirmities, there is always something that we can do for God. Even though Fanny was blind she served God. Our gentle Savior hears our cries and shall not passs us by!
