My Jesus, I love Thee

[1]
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.

[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;

[Refrain]
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

[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,

[Refrain]
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

[4]
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,

[Refrain]
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.
