Jesus, Thou Art Mine Forever

Jesus

Thou art mine for­ev­er

Dearer far than earth to me;

Neither life nor death shall sev­er

Those sweet ties which bind to Thee.

All were drear to me and lonely

If Thy pre­sence glad­dened not;

While I sing to Thee

Thee on­ly

Mine’s an ev­er bliss­ful lot.

Thou alone art all my trea­sure

Who hast died that I may live;

Thou con­fer­est nob­lest plea­sure

Who dost all my sins for­give.

Brightest gems and fair­est flow­ers

Lose their beau­ty in Thy frown;

Joy and peace

like bal­my show­ers

In Thy smile come gent­ly down.

Jesus

Thou art mine for­ev­er;

Never suf­fer me to stray.

Let me in my weak­ness nev­er

Cast my price­less pearl away.

Lamb of God

I do im­plore Thee

Guard

sup­port me

lest I fall.

Let me ev­er­more ad­ore Thee;

Be my ev­er­last­ing All.
