E465
| 1 | O Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Be Thou forever near me, My Master and my Friend; I shall not fear the battle If Thou art by my side, Nor wander from the pathway If Thou wilt be my Guide. |
| 2 | Oh, let me feel Thee near me; The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear; My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. |
| 3 | Oh, let me hear Thee speaking, In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will; Oh, speak to reassure me, To hasten, or control; Oh, speak, and make me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul. |
| 4 | O Jesus, Thou hast promised To all who follow Thee That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be; And Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Oh, give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend. |
| 5 | Oh, let me see Thy footmarks, And in them plant mine own; My hope to follow duly Is in Thy strength alone. Oh, guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end; And then to rest receive me, My Savior and my Friend. |

This song is spirit lifting to me. The last is the highlight for all believers. It remind me that it takes the grace and mercy of God to be steadfast in this Christian race. May the Almighty God uphold us to the end.

PTL for technology! I awoke with the words "O Jesus I have promised to serve thee to the end". And after too many years the next few words escaped me. He truly is my Master and my Friend. Thank you for ALL the words.

I was exposed to this and humdreds of others at a very early age; this one at about 3 or 4 and the Spirit of God has used it through the years to remind me of who and Whose's I am. Praise God for the old Spirit-filled hymns. Will singing this one tonight in Prayer meeting/Bible study as a renewed committment. Bless all of you at the website.

God put it in my heart as a child; He woke me up this morning with it on my lips. Through all this worldly strife, and even in my happiest moments, nothing compares to God; there is no greater height than to experience a love such as this. He is ever near me and will see me through the end.

I love this song because the wish of my soul is to serve You, Oh my Lord Jesus. But I'm weak. Please, help me and I will. I want just to serve You my King.
