For Thee all the follies of sin I resign.
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now!
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.
2 I love Thee because Thou has first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree.
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now!
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.
3 I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
And say when the death dew lies cold on my brow,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now!
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.
4 In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now!
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now. Used With Tune: [My Jesus, I love Thee] Text Sources: London Hymn Book
