Hymn/Song Information

Jesus my Saviour and my King Be thou my




Jesus, my Saviour and my King,
Be thou my best delight;
Dearer than every earthly thing;
My joy from morn till night.


Hungering and thirsting for thy grace,
I would be found each hour;
And all my hopes would ever place,
On thy almighty power.


Whilst thou dost still prolong my breath,
I’ll think how vile I am;
Whom nought could ransom but thy death,
of agony and shame.


I’ll think too, till I die, how good,
How kind thou art to me;
And Jesus, may thy flesh and blood,
My daily manna be.
