Jesus I Will Never Leave

Verse 1

Jesus I will never leave, Who for me Himself hath given; Firmly unto Him I'll cleave, Nor from Him be ever driven. Life from Him doth light receive-- Jesus I will never leave.

Verse 2

Jesus I will never leave While on earth I am abiding; What I have to Him I give, In all cares in Him confiding. Naught shall me of Him bereave-- Jesus I will never leave.

Verse 3

Though my sight shall pass away, Hearing, taste, and feeling fail me; Though my life's last light of day Shall o'ertake and sore assail me; When His summons I receive, Jesus I will never leave.

Verse 4

Nor will I my Jesus leave When at last I shall come thither Where His saints He will receive, Where is bliss they live together. Endless joy to me He'll give-- Jesus I will never leave.

Verse 5

Nor for earth's vain joys I crave Nor, without Him, heaven's pleasure; Jesus, who my soul did save, Evermore shall be my Treasure. He redemption did achieve-- Jesus I will never leave.
