Representative Text

1 I’ve given my heart to Jesus,
My life to His service sweet,
My strength and my hope I’ll daily
Renew at His precious feet.

Refrain:
I’ve given my heart to Jesus,
And He shall my leader be;
My soul shall be His forever,
And daily He’ll comfort me.

2 I’ve given my heart to Jesus,
My Saviour, my Lord, my God;
His footsteps I’ll try to follow
In paths He for me hath trod. [Refrain]

3 I’ve given my heart to Jesus,
I’m happy my King to own;
My labor His love shall sweeten,
My soul shall be His alone. [Refrain]
