Blessèd Je­sus, how I love Thee!
All my heart to Thee I give;
In my life there’s none ab­ove Thee,
Day by day for Thee I live.

Refrain

Keep, O keep me Thine for­ev­er,
Hold me in Thine arms of love;
Naught my heart and Thine shall se­ver,
O Thou bless­èd Friend above.

Of Thy grace my soul is sing­ing,
Thou art all in all to me;
To Thy pro­mise I am cling­ing,
Sure that I Thy face shall see.

Refrain

Keep me faithful, Friend eter­nal,
Let Thy glo­ry be my pride,
Till in yon­der world su­per­nal,
In Thy glo­ry I ab­ide.

Refrain

Soon will end all sin, all scorn­ing,
Soon my soul will find her own,
In that land of end­less morn­ing,
When I see Thee on Thy throne.
