Thine I am, O spotless Lamb, I will suffer nought to hide Thee, ask for nought beside Thee. 2 In Thine arms I rest me, foes who would oppress me cannot reach me here; though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; sin and hell in conflict fell with their heaviest storms assail me. Jesus will not fail me. 3 Satan, I defy thee; death, I need not fly thee; fear, I bid thee cease! Rage, O world, thy noises cannot drown our voices singing still of peace; for God's pow'r guards ev'ry hour; earth and all the depths adore Him, silent bow before Him. 4 Wealth, I will not heed thee; wherefore should I need thee? Jesus is my joy; honors, ye may glisten, but I will not listen, ye the soul destroy; want or loss or shame or cross ne'er to leave my Lord shall move me, since He deigns to love me. 5 Farewell, thou who choosest earth, and heaven refuses, thou wilt tempt in vain; hence, ye sins, nor blind me, get ye far behind me, come not forth again: past your hour, O pomp and power; godless life, thy bonds I sever, leave thee now for ever! 6 Hence, all thoughts sadness, for the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; those who love the Father, though the storms may gather, still have peace within; yea, whate'er I here must bear, Thou art still my purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless Treasure!
