Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior

When I was a little girl Nana would sing this song so often that I would always ask her: "Nana do you know any other songs?" Somehow that song would get into my head and infallibly within 10 minutes I was singing right along with Nana! 


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.

Let me at thy 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 heaven but thee?

... And guess what Nana would do after that she got me singing right along with her? 

She'd sing other Hymns to me of course: 


  1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
    Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
    Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
    • Refrain:
      This is my story, this is my song,
      Praising my Savior all the day long;
      This is my story, this is my song,
      Praising my Savior all the day long.
  2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
    Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
    Angels, descending, bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
  3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
    I in my Savior am happy and blest,
    Watching and waiting, looking above,
    Filled with His goodness, lost in His love
    ...


And also...

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.



T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.



Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.



The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.



Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.



When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.

What Satan knows about music: music automatically bypasses your logic and reasoning centers in your mind, therefore, music makes your mind an undefended gateway to your soul!


You will automatically become whatever you listen to repeatedly!!


Not to pick on any group of people buy just by way of example: This is what I now see: blue-eyed, blonde-haired, upper-class white teens from affluent Connecticut towns rapping about ghetto-life and Thug-life, etc. -- what are these idiots doing? Their brains have be thoroughly washed with foolishness!

What Nana knew about music: We wouldn't listen to Nana telling us about Jesus, so she simply played the Hymns into us! Nana's back then knew stuff!!

What the world has come to: Grandma's today are 35 year olds and they do not know any Hymns! 


Proverbs 22:6 -- Train a child in the way that he should go and when he is old she will not depart from it.


Thank you Jesus!!!!!

Thank You Nana !! I'll see you again at the Throne of God !!


It is unfortunate that some people don't know where there Grandma's Spirit is or they fabricate that's it's in Heaven. Nana reaped a harvest, shown in the lives of her countless sons, daughters, in-laws and grandchildren. WHY DO WE NEVER REMEMBER THAT MINISTRY IS IN THE HOME !!  


Mark 5:19 -- Jesus did not let him, but said, "Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."
