Hymnal: HCF1902 #133 (1902) First Line: "For Jesus' sake" all sin forgiv'n Lyrics: 1 “For Jesus’ sake” all sin forgiv’n!
“For Jesus’ sake! sweet rest!
‘Tis this glad word has wooed and won
My heart to love Him best.
His praise I sing; my Lord! my King!
Who died my peace to make;
And all the day, and all the way,
An echo in my heart shall say,
“For Jesus’ sake!”
2 “For Jesus’ sake” these precious words
Shall be like pinions swift,
To waft my prayer thro’ heaven’s gate,
And bear back many a gift;
Each answer free God sends to me,
Then joyfully I’ll take;
And all the day, and all the way,
An echo in my heart shall say,
“For Jesus’ sake!”
3 When often like a wayward child,
I murmur at His will,
Then this sweet word, “For Jesus’ sake,”
My restless heart can still;
I bow my head, and gently led,
His easy yoke I take;
And all the day, and all the way,
An echo in my heart shall say,
“For Jesus’ sake!”
4 In suffering sore or toilsome task,
His burden light I’ll bear;
“For Jesus’ sake” shall sweeten all,
Till His bright home I share;
And then this song, more sweet, more strong,
In heaven my harp shall wake;
Led all the way, till that glad day,
Eternally my heart shall say,
“For Jesus’ sake!”
