Vain, delusive world, adieu

Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #102 (1854) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1. Vain, delusive world, adieu, With all of creature good; Only Jesus I pursue, Who bought me with his blood; All thy pleasures I forego; I trample on thy wealth and pride; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus crucified. 2. Other knowledge I disdain, 'Tis all but vanity; Christ, the Lamb of God, was slain, He tasted death for me: Me to save from endless woe The sin atoning Victim died; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus crucified. 3. Here will I set up my rest; My fluctuating heart From the haven of his breast Shall nevermore depart; Whither should a sinner go? His wounds for me stand open wide; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus crucified. 4. Him to know is life and peace, And pleasure without end; This is all my happiness, On Jesus to depend; Daily in his grace to grow, And ever in his faith abide; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus crucified. 5. O that I could all invite, This saving truth to prove; Show the length, the breadth, the height, And depth of Jesus' love! Fain I would to sinners show The blood by faith alone applied; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus crucified. Languages: English Tune Title: DELIGHT [1]
