JESUS hath died that I might live,

By A Collection of Hymns


      C.M.
      1 JESUS hath died that I might live,
      Might live to God alone;
      In him eternal life receive,
      And be in spirit one.

      2 Saviour, I thank thee for the grace,
      The gift unspeakable!
      And wait with arms of faith to embrace,
      And all thy love to feel.

      3 My soul breaks out in strong desire
      The perfect bliss to prove;
      My longing heart is all on fire
      To be dissolved in love.

      4 Give me thyself; from every boast,
      From every wish set free;
      Let all I am in thee be lost;
      But give thyself to me.

      5 Thy gifts, alas, cannot suffice
      Unless thyself be given;
      Thy presence makes my paradise,
      And where thou art is heaven!
