JESUS IS MINE

Verse 1

FADE, fade, each earthly joy, ;
Jesus is mine! ;
Break every tender tie, ;
Jesus is mine! ;
Dark is the wilderness ;
Earth has no resting-place ;
Jesus alone can bless ;
Jesus is mine.

Verse 1

Fair, rich each earthly joy,
Jesus is mine!
Break ev'ry tender tie,
Jesus is mine!

Verse 2

Tempt not my soul away, ;
Jesus is mine! ;
Here would I ever stay, ;
Jesus is mine! ;
Perishing things of clay,
Born but for one brief day,
Pass from my heart away ;
Jesus is mine.

Verse 2

Tempt not my soul away,
Jesus is mine!
Here would I ever stay,
Jesus is mine!

Verse 3

Farewell, ye dreams of night, Jesus is mine! ;
Lost in this dawning bright, Jesus is mine! ;
All that my soul has tried
Left but a dismal void ;
Jesus has satisfied ;
Jesus is mine.

Verse 3

Farewell, ye dreams of night, Jesus is mine!
Lost in this dawning bright, Jesus is mine!

Farewell, mortality, ;
Jesus is mine! ;
Hail ! immortality ;
Jesus is mine ;
Welcome, O loved and blest !
Welcome, sweet scenes of rest ;
Welcome, my Saviour's breast ; Jesus is mine! !

Farewell, mortality,
Jesus is mine!


Welcome,
