Learn of Jesus

Representative Text

1 Learn of Jesus every day,
Walk with Him the heav’nly way,
Only words of kindness say,
Learn, learn of Him.

Refrain:
Learn of Jesus hour by hour,
Trust in His almighty power,
Learn of Jesus hour by hour,
Oh, learn of Him.

2Tho’ the lesson hard may be,
Full of pain and mystery,
Some sweet meaning thou shalt see,
Learn, learn of Him. [Refrain]

3 Teach us ever, dearest Lord,
Tho’ life’s lessons may be hard;
Oh, Thy smile shall be reward,
When life is o’er. [Refrain]
