My Jesus, I love thee, I know Thou art mine.
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Re dee mer, my Saviour 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.
