There is One loved me so that for me He died,
He’s my dear, pre­cious Sav­ior so true;
On the cross for my sins He was cru­ci­fied;
I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

Refrain

I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?
My Sav­ior so faith­ful and true;
When I reach the strand of that love-bright land,
O I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

When I’m wea­ry and faint, He is al­ways near,
With His joy He my strength doth re­new;
And He comforts my heart, speak­ing words of cheer;
I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

Refrain

Holy angels keep watch o’er me thro’ the night,
And each morn­ing He guards me anew;
In the smile of His love doth my soul de­light:
I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

Refrain

He is fair­er than li­ly or rose to me,
And His bless­ings fall soft as the dew;
O my heart, how it longs His dear face to see:
I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

Refrain

There’s a place for my soul that He doth pre­pare,
And its beau­ty by faith I can view;
First of all, when I en­ter that man­sion fair,
I want to see Je­sus, don’t you?

Refrain
