Jesus, Thou art mine forever
Matthias Loy (1779) • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 73:24
Verse 1
Jesus, thou art mine forever, Dearer far than earth to me; Neither life nor death shall sever Those sweet ties which bind to thee.
Verse 2
Thou alone art all my treasure, Who hast died that I might live; Thou conferest noblest pleasure, Who dost all my sins forgive.
Verse 3
Brightest gems and fairest flowers Lose their beauty in thy frown; Joy and peace, like balmy showers, In thy smile come gently down. A-men.
Verse 4
Lamb of God! I do implore thee, Guard, support me, lest I fall; Let me evermore adore thee; Be my everlasting All. Amen.
