      7s.
      1 JESUS, all-atoning Lamb,
      Thine, and only thine, I am;
      Take my body, spirit, soul;
      Only thou possess the whole.

      2 Thou my one thing needful be;
      Let me ever cleave to thee;
      Let me choose the better part;
      Let me give thee all my heart.

      3 Fairer than the sons of men,
      Do not let me turn again,
      Leave the fountain-head of bliss,
      Stoop to creature-happiness.

      4 Whom have I on earth below?
      Thee, and only thee, I know;
      Whom have I in heaven but thee?
      Thou art all in all to me.

      5 All my treasure is above,
      All my riches is thy love:
      Who the worth of love can tell?
      Infinite, unsearchable!

      6 Thou, O love, my portion art:
      Lord, thou know'st my simple heart!
      Other comforts I despise,
      Love be all my paradise.

      7 Nothing else can I require,
      Love fills up my whole desire;
      All thy other gifts remove,
      Still thou giv'st me all in love!
