Jesus, Jesus, Only Jesus

Verse 1

Jesus, Jesus, only Jesus Can my heartfelt longing still. Lo, I pledge myself to Jesus, What He wills alone to will, For my heart, which He hath filled, Ever cries, "Lord, as Thou wilt."

Verse 2

One there is for whom I'm living, Whom I love most tenderly; Unto Jesus I am giving What in love He gave to me. Jesus' blood hides all my guilt-- Lord, O lead me as Thou wilt.

Verse 3

What to me may seem a treasure, But displeasing is to Thee-- O remove such harmful pleasure; Give instead what profits me. Let my heart by Thee be stilled; Make me Thine, Lord, as Thou wilt.

Verse 4

Let me earnestly endeavor Thy good pleasure to fulfil; In me, through me, with me, ever, Lord, accomplish Thou Thy will. In Thy holy image built, Let me die, Lord, as Thou wilt.

Verse 5

Jesus, constant be my praises, For Thou unto me didst bring Thine own self and all Thy graces That I joyfully may sing: Be it unto me, my Shield, As Thou wilt, Lord, as Thou wilt.
