Lord Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine;
|
|
| 1. | Lord Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine; |
| | For Thee all the pleasures of sin I resign; |
| | My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou, |
| | If ever I love Thee, Lord Jesus, 'tis now. |
| 2. | I love Thee, because Thou hast first lovŠd me, |
| | And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree; |
| | I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy |
| | brow, |
| | If ever I loved Thee, Lord Jesus, 'tis now. |
| 3. | I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, |
| | And praise Thee as long as Thou leadest me |
| | breath; |
| | And say when the death-dew lies cold on my |
| | brow, |
| | If ever I loved Thee, Lord Jesus, 'tis now. |
| 4. | In ages eternal of endless delight |
| | I'll ever adore Thee in glory so bright; |
| | I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow, |
| | If ever I loved Thee, Lord Jesus, 'tis now. |
