Break ev'ry tender tie, Jesus is mine! Dark is the wilderness, Earth hath no resting-place, Jesus alone can bless, Jesus is mine! 2 Tempt not my soul away, Jesus is mine! Here would I ever stay, Jesus is mine! Perishing things of clay, Born but for one brief day, Pass from my heart away, Jesus is mine! 3 Farewell, ye dreams of night, Jesus is mine! Lost in this dawning light, Jesus is mine! All that my soul has tried left but a dismal void, Jesus has satisfied, Jesus is mine! 4 Farewell, mortality, Jesus is mine! Welcome, eternity, Jesus is mine! Welcome, O loved and blest, Welcome, sweet scenes of rest, Welcome, my Savior's breast, Jesus is mine! Used With Tune: [Fade, fade, each earthly joy]
