M. D.,James

8.7.8.7.Ref.

ALL for Jesus! All for Jesus!

All my being’s ransomed powers;

All my thoughts and words and doings,

All my days and all my hours.

All for Jesus! All for Jesus!

All my being’s ransomed powers;

All my thoughts and words and doings,

All my days and all my hours.

2

Let my hands perform His bidding;

Let my feet run in His ways;

Let mine eyes see Jesus only;

Let my lips speak forth His praise.

3

Worldlings prize their gems of beauty;

Cling to gilded toys of dust;

Boast of wealth, and fame, and pleasure;

Only Jesus will I trust.

4

Since mine eyes were fixed on Jesus,

I’ve lost sight of all beside―

So enchained my spirit’s vision,

Looking at the Crucified.

5

Oh, what wonder! how amazing!

Jesus glorious King of kings,

Deigns to call me His beloved,

Lets me rest beneath His wings.
