I will follow thee, my Saviour

Author: Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) Appears in 1,332 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Consecration and service First Line: Jesus, I my cross have taken Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow thee; Though I be despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my all shalt be. Refrain: I will follow thee, my Saviour, Thou hast shed thy blood for me; And though all the world forsake thee, By thy grace I’ll follow thee. 2 Perish every fond ambition, All I’ve sought or hoped or known; Yet how rich is my condition, God and Heaven are still my own. 3 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour too; Human hearts and looks deceive me, Thou art not like them, untrue. 4 And while thou shalt smile upon me, God of wisdom, love and might, Foes may hate and friends may shun me, Show thy face and all is bright. 5 O ‘tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me! O ‘twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy not found in thee!

Loved with everlasting love

Author: George Wade Robinson (1838-77) Appears in 96 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Praise and Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Loved with everlasting love, Led by grace that love to know; Spirit, breathing from above, Thou hast taught me this is so. O this full and perfect peace! O this transport all divine! In a love which cannot cease I am his and he is mine. 2 Heaven above is softer blue, Earth around is sweeter green; Something lives in every hue, Christless eyes have never seen; Birds with gladder songs o’erflow, Flowers with deeper beauties shine, Since I know, as now I know, I am his and he is mine. 3 His for ever, only his; Who the Lord and me shall part? Ah! with what a rest of bliss Christ can fill the loving heart. Heaven and earth may fade and flee, First-born light in gloom decline, But, throughout eternity, I am his and he is mine.

I bring thee all my heart, None do I love like thee. 3 O Man of sorrows, praying in the garden, Thy sweat as blood falls down upon the ground. In that dark agony my sins are pardoned; My solace in thy grief is found. I bring thee all my tears, None can console like thee.
