Lyrics
Jesus I will never leave
Who for me Himself has given;
Therefore unto Him I'll cleave,
Nor from Him be ever driven;
Life from Him doth light receive;
Jesus I will never leave.
Not for earth's vain joy I crave,
Not for heaven's glorious pleasure;
Jesus, who my soul did save,
Shall be my desire and treasure.
He redemption did achieve;
Jesus I will never leave.
Jesus I will never leave;
Oh, the gifts that He has given!
Comfort, rest, and joy and light,
All are sent to me from heaven.
Hope and life come from above,
All because of Jesus' love.
I am His and He is mine,
Love has bound us so sincerely;
Through His wounds and blood divine
Was my ransom paid so dearly.
On Him I will firmly build,
Full of hope which shall not yield.
When the heart would seek the Lord
To enfold, O blessed hour!
And how great is the reward:
Grace and peace to share with power,
And one glance that for Him yearns,
With a thousand joys returns.
Jesus I shall never leave,
To His side still firmly clinging.
Christ leads all who Him receive
To life's waters ever springing.
Blest are they who to Him cleave!
Jesus I will never leave.
Who for me Himself has given;
Therefore unto Him I'll cleave,
Nor from Him be ever driven;
Life from Him doth light receive;
Jesus I will never leave.
Not for earth's vain joy I crave,
Not for heaven's glorious pleasure;
Jesus, who my soul did save,
Shall be my desire and treasure.
He redemption did achieve;
Jesus I will never leave.
Jesus I will never leave;
Oh, the gifts that He has given!
Comfort, rest, and joy and light,
All are sent to me from heaven.
Hope and life come from above,
All because of Jesus' love.
I am His and He is mine,
Love has bound us so sincerely;
Through His wounds and blood divine
Was my ransom paid so dearly.
On Him I will firmly build,
Full of hope which shall not yield.
When the heart would seek the Lord
To enfold, O blessed hour!
And how great is the reward:
Grace and peace to share with power,
And one glance that for Him yearns,
With a thousand joys returns.
Jesus I shall never leave,
To His side still firmly clinging.
Christ leads all who Him receive
To life's waters ever springing.
Blest are they who to Him cleave!
Jesus I will never leave.
