Laudes Domini ‎#312

312. Jesus is mine

1 Now I have found a Friend;
Jesus is mine;
His love shall never end;
Jesus is mine;
Though earthly joys decrease,
Though earthly friendships cease,
Now I have lasting peace:
Jesus is mine.

2 Though I grow poor and old,
Jesus is mine;
Though I grow faint and cold,
Jesus is mine:
He shall my wants supply;
His precious blood is nigh,
Naught can my hope destroy;
Jesus is mine.

3 When earth shall pass away,
Jesus is mine,
In the great judgment day,
Jesus is mine,
Oh! what a glorious thing,
Then to behold my King,
On tuneful harp to sing,
Jesus is mine.

4 Father! thy name I bless;
Jesus is mine;
Thine was the sovereign grace;
Praise shall be thine;
Spirit of holiness!
Sealing the Father's grace,
Thou mad'st my soul embrace
Jesus, as mine.
