Hail, My Ever Blessed Jesus

John Wingrove • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 116:16-17

Verse 1

Hail, my ever blessed Jesus! Only Thee I wish to sing; To my soul Thy Name is precious, Thou my Prophet, Priest and King. O what mercy flows from heaven! O what joy and happiness! Love I much? I’m much forgiven; I’m a miracle of grace.

Verse 2

Once with Adam’s race in ruin, Unconcerned in sin I lay; Swift destruction still pursuing, Till my Saviour passed that way. Witness, all ye hosts of heaven, My Redeemer’s tenderness! Love I much? I’m much forgiven, I’m a miracle of grace.

Verse 3

Shout, ye bright angelic choir! Praise the Lamb enthroned above; While, astonished, I admire God’s free grace and boundless love. That blest moment I received Him, Filled my soul with joy and peace; Love I much? I’m much forgiven, I’m a miracle of grace.
