My Jesus, I Love Thee
Verse 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/
Verse 2
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/
Verse 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/
“If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus tis now”/
