Representative Text

1 I’m enthrilled in the presence of Jesus,
And his wonderful love for me;
My heart welleth up with his praises,
And henceforth my song shall be.

Refrain:
Love so unbounded,
Won my heart to him,
Blood all availing, purifies from sin;
Grace so sufficient
Keep me pure and clean,
In his grace I’ll meet my King.

2 He abandoned his will in the garden,
And he suffered the Father’s own,
That he my redemption might proffer,
That he for my sins might atone. [Refrain]

3 When the weight of my sins fell upon him,
And he prayed for the Father’s pow’r,
There appeared in the heavens an angel
Who strengthened his heart that hour. [Refrain]

4 When the angel shall open the portals,
And I stand on the golden street,
My joy ne’er shall end in the presence
Of him whom I long to meet. [Refrain]
