\nMy Jesus, I love thee, I know thou art mine;
\nfor thee all the follies of sin I resign.
\nMy gracious Redeemer, my Savior art thou;
\nif ever I loved thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.<\/p>\n

\nI love thee because thou hast first loved me,
\nand purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree;
\nI love thee for wearing the thorns on thy brow;
\nif ever I loved thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.<\/p>\n
3
\nI’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee ’til death,
\nAnd praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
\nAnd say when the death dew lies cold on my brow,
\nif ever I loved thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.<\/p>\n
4
\nIn mansions of glory and endless delight;
\nI’ll ever adore thee in heaven so bright;
\nI’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow;
\nif ever I loved thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.<\/p>\n
