We’ll Give Our Hearts to Jesus

Composer: Howard Doane

We’ll give our hearts to Je­sus

And learn His name to praise

The bless­èd Bi­ble tells us

How plea­sant are His ways.

We’ll give our hearts to Je­sus

In sun­ny child­hood’s hours

Where life is like the spring­time

And full of buds and flow­ers.

And when we safe­ly an­chor

On Ca­naan’s hap­py shore

To Him be all the glo­ry

And praise for­ev­er more.

We’ll give our hearts to Je­sus

Our best and dear­est friend

He like a gen­tle shep­herd

Will guide us to the end.

In green and frag­rant pas­tures

His lit­tle flock will lead

Beside the qui­et waters

Supplying all we need.

We’ll give our hearts to Je­sus

Who died that we might live

Our hearts

though weak and sin­ful

Are all we have to give.

The sim­ple pray­er of child­hood

Our God will ne’er des­pise

A low­ly con­trite spir­it

Is pre­cious in His eyes.
