Hallowed Hymns, New and Old ‎#64

64. All for Jesus

1 I have heard Thy voice, Lord Jesus,
Saying in Thy grace divine,
"Fear thou not, I have redeem'd thee;
I have call'd thee, thou art Mine."
Lord, I bring Thee full allegiance!
Lord, I yield Thee ev'rything!
Answ'ring--"Yea, Thou hast redeem'd me;
I am Thine, my King! my King!"

Chorus:
All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
All for Him who died for me;
All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
Now and through eternity.

2 I have nothing worth Thy taking,
Thou, whom heav'nly hosts adore!
But my heart is longing, yearning,
To be Thine for evermore.
So I come to Thee, Lord Jesus!
Laying, in surrender sweet
All I am, and have, and hope for,
All I love, at Thy dear feet. [Chorus]

3 For the words that now Thy children
Whisper upward falt'ringly,
Soon shall be their shout of triumph,
Echoing far from sea to sea.
We shall sing it at His coming,
When His foes are prostrate hurl'd;
"All for Jesus!" "All for Jesus!"
Shall go ringing 'round the world. [Chorus]
