John Love • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 28:20

Jesus, I love Thee, Thou art my dearest friend; With me, till life shall end, Graciously be; Thy promise I believe, Thy peace let me receive, Heaven’s choicest blessings give, Saviour to me.

Verse 2

Jesus, I trust Thee, Thy should I know a fear. Since Thou to me so near Ever wilt be? My heavy burdens share, Help me my griefs to bear, Bring me, through every care, Closer to Thee.
