266 - Fade, Fade Each Earthly Joy

Fade, fade each earthly joy--  Jesus is mine. Break every tender tie-- Jesus is mine. Dark is the wilderness, Earth has no resting place, Jesus alone can bless-- Jesus is mine.

2.

Tempt not my soul away-- Jesus is mine.  Here would I ever stay-- Jesus is mine.  Perishing things of clay, Born but for one brief day, Pass from my heart away-- Jesus is mine.

3.

Farewell, ye dreams of night-- Jesus is mine. Lost in this dawning bright-- Jesus is mine. All that my soul has tried Left but a dismal void; Jesus has satisfied-- Jesus is mine.

4.

Farewell, mortality-- Jesus is mine. Welcome, eternity-- Jesus is mine.  Welcome, O Loved and Blest, Left by the dismal void; Jesus has satisfied-- Jesus is mine.
