My Jesus, I Love Thee

Whom do you love most? Your spouse? Your parents? Your children? Your money? ... (Fill in the blank with your lovely ones!)

As for me, there's only one I do love most, Jesus Christ. The redeemer, my Lord and my Savior. He has first loved me, that's why I could love Him.

I'll love Him in life and in death. 'Til everlasting life I'll always adore Him.

If ever I loved Him, It is now.

I remember the hymn about it. My Jesus, I Love Thee.


My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine;
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.

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.

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.

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.
