| 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 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
|
| 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 |
