93. The Better Day Coming On

1 My Jesus, I love thee, I know thou art mine,
For thee all the pleasures of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art thou,
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.

Chorus:
There's a better day, there's a crowning day,
There's a better day coming on,
There's a better day, there's a crowning day,
There's a better day coming on,
Coming on, coming on,
There's a better day, there's a crowning day,
There's a better day coming on.

2 I love thee because thou hast first loved me,
And purchased my pardon, being nailed to the tree;
I love thee for wearing the thorns on thy brow,
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. [Chorus]

3 In mansions of glory, or heavenly delight,
I'll ever adore thee in regions of light;
And sing with a glittering crown on my brow,
If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. [Chorus]
