I’ve found a re­fuge from life’s cares in Je­sus,
I am hid­ing in His love di­vine;
He ful­ly un­der­stands my soul’s deep long­ing,
And He whis­pers soft­ly, Thou art Mine.

Refrain

Only Je­sus! On­ly Je­sus!
Only He can sa­tis­fy;
Every bur­den be­comes a blessing,
When I know my Lord is nigh.

I’ve found a pre­cious joy in know­ing Je­sus,
Never dreamed of in this world of woe;
No clouds, how­ev­er dark, can dim the ra­di­ance
Of the heav’n­ly light He doth be­stow.

Refrain

I’ve found a bless­èd hope di­vine in Je­sus,
’Tis a Day Star ev­er shin­ing bright;
It fills my earth­ly way with heav’n­ly glo­ry,
And it turns life’s dark­ness in­to light.

Refrain
