TAKE THE WORLD BUT GIVE ME JESUS



I've thrown it all away

That I might gain a life in you

I've found, all else is lost compared

To the joys of knowing you

Your beauty and your majesty

Are far beyond compare

You've won my heart

Now this will be my prayer.

Take the world but give me Jesus

You're the treasure in this life

Take the world but give me Jesus is my cry

Now I've seen you as The Saviour

I will leave the rest behind

Take the world but give me Jesus is my cry.

Into the world I go 

That I might live this life of love

I won't be overcome for

you are in me and you are strong

For time and for eternity

I know I'm in your care

You've won my heart

Now this will be my prayer.

Take the world but give me Jesus

You're the treasure in this life

Take the world but give me Jesus is my cry

Now I've seen you as The Saviour

I will leave the rest behind

Take the world but give me Jesus is my cry...
