My Jesus,
I love Thee, I know thou are 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 hast first loved me,
and purchased
my pardon on Calgary's tree.
I love Thee for
wearing the thorns on thy brow.
If ever I loved
Thee, My Jesus, 'tis now.
I will 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.
