Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #299 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: My Jesus, I love thee, I know thou art mine Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, I love thee, I know thou art mine,
For thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art thou;
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
2 I love thee, because thou hast 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, and I'll love thee in death;
I'll 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,
And sing with the glittering crown on my brow,
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
