Pass Me Not

I love hymns!!! While our church does the more contemporary praise-band thing, I still sing my favorites to my kids... What will I do when they're old enough to realize mama's bellering isn't all that cool? Anyhoo, I heard this one this morning on Pandora, and remember how much I loved it...

Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Refrain:
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry,
While on others Thou are calling,
Do not pass me by.

Let me at a throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.

Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

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.

Fanny Crosby wrote Pass Me Not (that's her in the upper right), along with like a billion other well-known hymns, despite being blind from shortly after birth. She's got a really inspiring story... Check it out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanny_Crosby.
