My Jesus I Love Thee
January 2, 2006
Words by William R. Featherston Music by Adoniram J. Gordon
Another one of my favorite hymns. This one always gets to me!
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.
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.
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.
