1
My Jesus I love thee
I know thou art mine
For thee all the pleasures of sin I resign
My gracious redeemer
My savior art thou
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee, my Jesus ‘tis now

2
I love thee because thou hast first loved me
And purchased my pardon n Calvary’s tree
I love thee for wearing the thorns on your brow
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee, my Jesus ‘tis now

Chat:
Give you my heart
Lord when you call I’ll be right there on the double
Cause you’re always keeping me out of trouble away from all harm and all evil (x3)

3
I love thee in life
I will love thee in death
And praise thee as long as thou lendeth me breath
Oh, I will sing when the death dew lies cold on my brow
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee
If ever I love thee, my Jesus ‘tis now

Chat:
Give you my soul, Lord come in and take full control
Let me jump and sing cause you made me whole
Took me away from the heat and the cold (x3)
