Tune: | [I will live for Jesus day by day] |
Composer: | Howard E. Smith |
1 I will live for Jesus day by day,
I will truly serve him, and alway;
He is my dear Savior, I enjoy his favor,
And I walk with him the narrow way.
Chorus:
I will live for Jesus,
And to him be true;
I will love and serve him,
Will you? will you?
I will live for Jesus,
And to him be true;
I will love and serve him,
Will you? will you?
2 Others turn from Jesus far away;
Others cease to serve him and to pray;
With his blood he bought me, in his love he sought me,
And I will be true to him alway. [Chorus]
3 Why should I forget this dearest Friend?
Why should I his gracious love offend?
I will love him ever, and forsake him never,
And upon his grace I will depend. [Chorus]
4 He deserves of love the very best;
He should have my heart to give it rest;
For my Lord I take him, and my King I make him,
And in him my soul is truly blest. [Chorus]
