183. Alone With Jesus

1 O to be alone with Jesus!
In His presence I would be,
When I hear the trump of heaven
Usher in eternity.

Chorus:
O to be alone with Jesus,
From all sin and care set free,
There is where His love is sweetest,
There is where He's nearest me.

2 O to be alone with Jesus!
Is to bid my foes depart,
While the overflowing fulness
Of His spirit fills my heart. [Chorus]

3 O to be alone with Jesus!
Is to live on higher ground,
Burdened with a love for sinners,
Which alone in Christ is found. [Chorus]
