332 - My Jesus I Love Thee

My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine; For Thee all the follies of sin I resign.  My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

2.

I love Thee because Thou has first loved me, And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree.  I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

3.

I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say when the death dew lies cold on my brow, “If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now”.

4.

In mansions of glory and endless delight, I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow; “If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now”.
