American songwriter Fanny J. Crosby wrote the timeless hymn “Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour” in 1868, which was later set to music by William H. Doane in 1870.
Pass Me Not Oh Gentle Saviour Lyrics
Verse 1
Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Chorus
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Verse 2
Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief,
Kneeling there in deep contrition;
Help my unbelief.
Chorus
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Verse 3
Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.
Chorus
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Verse 4
Thou the Spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in Heav’n but Thee?
Chorus
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
