MY JESUS, I LOVE THEE
1. My Jesus, I love Thee, I know
Thou art mine;
For Thee all the follies of sin I
resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my
Saviour art Thou:
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus >tis
now!
2. I love Thee, because Thou has 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!
3. 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;
AIf ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, >tis
now.
4. 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:
AIf ever I loved Thee, my Jesus >tis
now!
