112. Living for Jesus

1 Living for Jesus, oh, what peace!
Rivers of pleasure never cease.
Trials may come, yet I'll not fear.
Living for Jesus, He is near.

Refrain
Help me to serve thee more and more.
Help me to praise Thee o'er and o'er;
Live in Thy presence day by day,
Never to turn from Thee away.

2 Living for Jesus, oh, what rest!
Pleasing my Saviour, I am blest.
Only to live for Him alone.
Doing His will till life is done! Refrain

3 Living for Jesus, ev'rywhere,
All of my burdens He doth bear.
Friends may forsake me; He'll be true.
Trusting in Him, He'll guide me through. Refrain

4 Living for Jesus, till at last
Into His glory I have passed;
There to behold Him on His throne,
Hear from His lips, "My child, well done!" Refrain
