Gloria Deo ‎#122

122. Alone with Jesus

1 Alone with Jesus! blessed place,
Where I behold Him face to face,
And every line of beauty trace,—
Companionship divine.

2 Alone with Jesus, while without
Are care and danger, fear and doubt;
But while with Him, the world shut out,
The joys of heav’n are mine.

3 Alone with Jesus, oh, the bliss
Of holding converse such as this;
All anxious care I now dismiss,
And all of earth resign.

4 Alone with Jesus, oh, how blest!
Close folded to my Saviour’s breast,
Be Thou, dear Lord, my constant guest,
And keep me wholly Thine.
