12244. I Will Sing For Jesus

1 I will sing for Jesus,
With His blood He bought me;
And all along my pilgrim way
His loving hand has brought me.

Refrain:
Oh, help me sing for Jesus,
Help me tell the story
Of Him who died to redeem us,
The Lord of life and glory.

2 Can there overtake me
Any dark disaster,
While I am singing for Jesus,
My blessèd, blessèd Master? [Refrain]

3 I will sing for Jesus!
His name alone prevailing,
Shall be my sweetest music,
When heart and flesh are failing. [Refrain]

4 Still I’ll sing for Jesus!
Oh, how will I adore Him,
Among the cloud of witnesses,
Who cast their crowns before Him. [Refrain]
