| 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. |
