My Jesus I Love Thee |
|
My Jesus I love Thee, I know Thou art mine; |
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign; |
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou; |
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now. |
|
I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me, |
And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree; |
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; |
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now. |
|
I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, |
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; |
And say when the death dew lies cold on my brow, |
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now. |
|
In mansions of glory and endless delight, |
I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; |
I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow, |
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now. |
