And Your fullest benediction Shed within its walls alway. 3 Here bestow to all Your servants What they ask of You to gain, What they gain from You forever With the blessèd to retain, And hereafter in Your glory Evermore with You to reign. 4 Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three and ever one; One in might and one in glory While unending ages run.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus only

Author: Ludämilia Elizabeth of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt; Rev. August Crull Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Jesus, Jesus only Can my heartfelt longing still; Without Him my soul is lonely, And I wish, what Jesus will. For my heart, which He hath filled, Ever cries: Lord, as Thou wilt. 2 One it is for whom I'm living, Whom I love most tenderly; Jesus! ever to Him giving, What in love He gives to me. Jesus' blood hides all my guilt; Lead me, Lord, then as Thou wilt. 3 Seems a thing to me a treasure Which displeasing is to Thee -- Then remove such dang'rous pleasure; Give instead what profits me. Let my heart by Thee be stilled, Make me Thine, Lord, as Thou wilt. 4 Grant that I may e'er endeavor Thy good pleasure to fulfill, In me, through me, with me ever, Lord, accomplish Thou Thy will. Let me die, Lord, on Thee built, When, and where, and as Thou wilt. 5 Jesus, constant be my praises; Thou, who gav'st Thyself to me, Gav'st me all; my heart hence raises Its rejoicing cries to Thee: Be it unto me, my Shield, As Thou wilt, Lord, as Thou wilt.
