My Jesus I Love Thee

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.


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.


I’ll love thee in life, and I’ll love thee in death;
I’ll praise thee as long as thou lendest me breath;
And say when the death-dew lies cold on my bro
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;
And sing with the glittering crown on my brow;
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus ‘tis now.
