Text:"Jesus only!"
Author:Frances R. Havergal
Tune:GRANGE
Composer:R. B. Borthwick

377. "Jesus only!"

1 "Jesus only!" In the shadow
Of the cloud so chill and dim,
We are clinging, loving, trusting,
He with us, and we with him:
All unseen, though ever nigh,
"Jesus only!"--all our cry.

2 "Jesus only!" in the glory,
When the shadows all are flown,
Seeing him in all his beauty,
Satisfied with him alone;
May we join his ransomed throng,
"Jesus only!"--all our song!
