Lov'st Thou Jesus?
Author: Thomas MacKellar Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #107 (1889) First Line: Art thou in thy spirit lowly Refrain First Line: Lovest thou Jesus? Lyrics: 1 Art thou in thy spirit lowly,
Like the Man of Nazareth?
Art thou seeking to be wholly
Join’d to Him—come life or death?
Lov’st thou Jesus? Lov’st thou Jesus?
More than thine own vital breath?
Refrain:
Lov’st thou Jesus? Lov’st thou Jesus?
More than all the world beside?
Lov’st thou Jesus, Christ thy Saviour,
Lamb of God, the Crucified?
2 Hath the water trickled on thee?
Or hast thou been plung’d below?
Have a Bishop’s hands upon thee
Lain as soft as falling snow?
Lov’st thou Jesus? Lov’st thou Jesus?
This alone ‘twere wise to know. [Refrain]
3 Is thy bosom full of sorrow?
Is a cloud upon thy way?
Why the worldling’s burden borrow?
Child of grace and promise, say!
Lov’st thou Jesus? Lov’st thou Jesus?
Joy should be thy guest today. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Art thou in thy spirit lowly]

8. There is a land immortal. Heaven. Mr. Mackellar says that this hymn was written
"One evening as a fancy suddenly struck me of a religious nature, I laid aside the work in hand, and pursuing the new idea, I at once produced the hymn, ‘There is a land immortal,' and sent it to the editor [of Neale's Gazette], who referred to it as a religious poem from ‘Tam,' my assumed name, under which I had already acquired considerable notoriety. This was in 1845. It was widely copied, and afterwards inserted in a volume published by me." Duffield's English Hymns, &c, 1886, p. 551.
Mr. Mackellar was an Elder of the Presbyterian Church. [Rev. F. M. Bird, M.A.]
