GRH 298 I am Praying for You

(1)
I have a Saviour, He’s pleading in glory,
A dear loving Saviour, tho’ earth friends be few;
And now He is watching in tenderness o’er me,
And, oh, that my Saviour were your Saviour, too.
For you I am praying, For you I am praying,
For you I am praying, I’m praying for you.

(2)
I have a Father; to me He has given
A hope for eternity blessed and true;
And soon will He call me to meet Him in heaven,
But, oh, that He’d let me bring you with me, too!
For you I am praying, For you I am praying,
For you I am praying, I’m praying for you.

(3)
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!
For you I am praying, For you I am praying,
For you I am praying, I’m praying for you.

(4)
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.
For you I am praying, For you I am praying,
For you I am praying, I’m praying for you.
