Representative Text

1 When the love of Jesus
Dwelleth in the heart,
We, like loving Mary,
Choose the better part;
And in love abiding,
Joyful on our way,
We will journey onward
To the perfect day.

Refrain:
Come, thou blessed Saviour,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Then among the ransomed,
I in heav’n will shine.

2 If the great example
Of our Master dear,
Be our aim and motto
While we linger here,—
If our lives are simple,
Undefiled as His,
We shall then in heaven
See Him as He is. [Refrain]

3 Let us strive to follow
Jesus all the way,
Till we see the morning
Of the perfect day;
Then as stars forever,
Each a spotless gem,
We shall shine eternal
In His diadem. [Refrain]
