Keep Your Covenant With Jesus

Author: Martha C. Oliver Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #E107 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with chorus Lyrics: 1 Keep your covenant with Jesus, ‘Tis the least that you can do: For He died for your salvation, And He always has been true. He has been your guide and helper, He has been a faithful Friend, And you never can repay Him, Tho’ you serve Him to the end. Chorus: Keep your covenant with Jesus, To your pledge be ever true, For He gave Himself your ransom; Yes, He died, He died for you. 2 Tho’ we give our dearest treasure, ‘Tis a trifle we bestow: Tho’ we mete with largest measure, ‘Tis but little we can show; But He sees the good intention, And the loyal, loving will, And by giving Him our utmost, We may each His charge fulfill. [Chorus] 3 What are all our cares and burdens? They are shadows dimly cast; They will fade and quickly vanish, If we hold our promise fast. We can smile at all our losses, We can welcome toil and pain; If we keep our pledge with Jesus, None of these will be in vain.
