Jesus loves you true

Representative Text

1 Jesus loves you true!
Keep the thought with you.
Like the trees in springtime glory,
Let your heart burst with the story
Of His love for you;
Let your heart be true.

2 He is seeking me,
He is seeking thee!
Let your heart respond within thee,
Let Him kindle longing in me.
While He's seeking you,
Let Him find me too.

3 Jesus calls to thee,
Jesus calls to me!
Let His calling draw you near Him;
I will follow, to endear Him,
As He calls to thee:
Follow, follow Me!

4 Jesus patiently
Takes the blame for me!
Ought I not, repentant feeling,
Weeping, at His feet be kneeling?
Yes, He bears the blame
Gladly in my name.
