Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Fade each earthly joy,
Jesus is mine.
Break every tender tie,
Jesus is mine.
Dark is the wilderness,
Earth has no resting place,
Jesus alone can bless,
Jesus is mine.
VERSE 2
Tempt not my soul away,
Jesus is mine.
Here would I ever stay,
Jesus is mine.
Perishing thing of clay
Born but for one brief day
Pass from my heart away
Jesus is mine.
VERSE 3
Farewell ye dreams of night,
Jesus is mine.
Lost in the dawning light,
Jesus is mine.
All that my soul has tried
Left but a dismal void
Jesus has satisfied,
Jesus is mine.
VERSE 4
Farewell, mortality,
Jesus is mine.
Welcome eternity,
Jesus is mine.
Welcome, O loved and blest
Welcome, sweet scene of rest
Welcome, my saviour bless,
Jesus is mine.
