329- Take the World, but Give Me Jesus

Gospel: Consecration

1

  • Take the world, but give me Jesus;
  • All its joys are but a name,
  • But His love abideth ever,
  • Through eternal years the same.

Refrain

  • Oh, the height and depth of mercy!
  • Oh, the length and breadth of love!
  • Oh, the fullness of redemption,
  • Pledge of endless life above.

2

  • Take the world, but give me Jesus,
  • Sweetest comfort of my soul;
  • With my Savior watching o'er me,
  • I can sing, though billows roll.

3

  • Take the world, but give me Jesus;
  • Let me view His constant smile;
  • Then throughout my pilgrim journey
  • Light will cheer me all the while.

4

  • Take the world, but give me Jesus;
  • In His cross my trust shall be,
  • Till, with clearer, brighter vision,
  • Face to face my Lord I see.
