Jesus I Will Never Leave
Author: C. Keimann, 1607-62 Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus I will never leave,
Who for me Himself hath given;
Firmly unto Him I'll cleave,
Nor from Him be ever driven.
Life from Him doth light receive--
Jesus I will never leave.
2 Jesus I will never leave
While on earth I am abiding;
What I have to Him I give,
In all cares in Him confiding.
Naught shall me of Him bereave--
Jesus I will never leave.
3 Though my sight shall pass away,
Hearing, taste, and feeling fail me;
Though my life's last light of day
Shall o'ertake and sore assail me;
When His summons I receive,
Jesus I will never leave.
4 Nor will I my Jesus leave
When at last I shall come thither
Where His saints He will receive,
Where is bliss they live together.
Endless joy to me He'll give--
Jesus I will never leave.
5 Nor for earth's vain joys I crave
Nor, without Him, heaven's pleasure;
Jesus, who my soul did save,
Evermore shall be my Treasure.
He redemption did achieve--
Jesus I will never leave.

Jesus I Will Never Leave
Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast still'd
Author: Johann Wilhelm Meinhold, D. D.; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 156 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast still'd
Now Thy little lamb’s last weeping;
Ah! how peaceful, pale and mild
In its narrow bed ’tis sleeping!
And no sigh of anguish sore
Heaves that little bosom more.
2 In this world of care and pain,
Lord, Thou wouldst no longer leave it;
To the sunny heavenly plain
Dost Thou now in joy receive it;
Clothed in robes of spotless white,
Now it dwells with Thee in light. Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Death and Burial; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Death and Burial Used With Tune: SAXONY (Meinen Jesum lass ich nicht)
