Crowning Day No. 4 ‎#209

209. 'Tis Sweet to be Thine

1 ‘Tis sweet to take from Jesus
Whatever He may send;
‘Tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Our ever present Friend.

Refrain:
‘Tis sweet, O blessed Jesus,
To be entirely Thine;
And know there is no measure
To Thy great love divine.

2 ‘Tis sweet to think of Jesus;
When earthly shadows mock;
‘Tis sweet to lean on Jesus,
The soul’s eternal Rock. [Refrain]

3 ‘Tis sweet to feel that Jesus,
When from full hearts we pray,
Before we ask will answer,
And heareth all we say. [Refrain]
