Hymnal: The Silver Chime #19 (1862) First Line: Why should I be sad or fearful? Lyrics: 1 Why should I be sad or fearful?
Jesus is mine:
Why should eyes with grief be tearful?
Jesus is mine:
Now, His gracious work completed,
He above all power is seated,
And by hosts in glory greeted;
Jesus is mine!
2 Mine from danger to protect me,
Jesus is mine:
From my wand'rings to correct me,
Jesus is mine;
Mine to fill my soul with pleasure,
Mine, a priceless, peerless treasure,
Mine e'en now and mine forever;
Jesus is mine!
3 Mine thro' life's tempestuous journey,
Jesus is mine:
What tho' it be rough and stormy?
Jesus is mine:
Now He spreads His banner o'er me,
Sets the "blessed hope" before me
Of his coming soon in glory;
Jesus is mine!
4 Till that day, I'd fain be telling,
Jesus is mine:
On his love be ever dwelling;
Jesus is mine;
Thus I'd wait his blest appearing,
His own voice my spirit cheering;
Till I sing, the palm-branch bearing,
Jesus is mine!
