Whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.
Romans 14:8
Words & Music: Charles F. Weigle, 1903 (🔊 pdf nwc).
Living for Jesus—O what peace!
Rivers of pleasure never cease.
Trials may come, yet I’ll not fear.
Living for Jesus, He is near.
Refrain
Help me to serve Thee more and more.
Help me to praise Thee o’er and o’er;
Live in Thy presence day by day,
Never to turn from Thee away.
Living for Jesus—O what rest!
Pleasing my Savior, I am blest.
Only to live for Him alone,
Doing His will till life is done!
Refrain
Living for Jesus everywhere,
All of my burden He doth bear.
Friends may forsake me; He’ll be true.
Trusting in Him, He’ll guide me through.
Refrain
Living for Jesus till at last
Into His glory I have passed;
There to behold Him on His throne,
Hear from His lips, My child, well done!
