179. Jesus Only

1 Jesus only, Jesus only,
Lifts the heavy load of sin;
By His Spirit, Holy Spirit,
Gives abiding peace within.

Refrain:
Do you wonder why I love Him,
When He died to save my soul?
I will praise Him always praise Him,
While eternal years shall roll.

2 Jesus only, Jesus only,
In the hour of pain and grief,
By His mercies, tender mercies,
Brings the wounded heart relief. [Refrain]

3 Jesus only, Jesus only,
‘Mid temptations dark as night,
Makes His people more than conqu’rors,
Thro’ His everlasting might. [Refrain]

4 Jesus only, Jesus only,
When we reach the valley lone,
Will be with us, faithful Shepherd,
Leading to the radiant throne. [Refrain]
