Lyics

MY God, I am thine, What a comfort divine,

What a blessing to know that my Jesus is mine!

In th' heavenly Lamb, Thrice happy I am,-

My heart doth rejoice at the sound of his name.



True pleasures abound In the rapturous sound;

Whoever hath found it, hath paradise found:

My Jesus to know, And feel his blood flow,-

'T is life everlasting, 't is heaven below



Yet onward I haste To the heavenly feast:

That, that is the fulness; but this is the taste!

And this I shall prove, Till with joy I remove

To th' heaven of heavens in Jesus's love.
