1 I know no other Jesus
Than He who died for me;
The Savior of lost sinners,
The Christ of Calvary.
I know no "ideal" Jesus
That human minds invent;
The only Christ I worship
Is whom the Father sent.
2 That human Christs could save me,
Is inadmissible;
My Jesus is the image
Of God invisible.
My Christ became incarnate,
And of the virgin born;
He left a crown of glory
To wear the platted thorn.
3 The Infant of the manger,
The village Carpenter,
The Teacher sent from Heaven
To men to minister;
The true historic Jesus,
Who died and rose again,
He only is the Jesus
That I proclaim to men.
