Friends all around me
are trying to find
What the heart yearns for,
by sin undermined;
I have the secret,
I know where ’tis found:
Only true pleasures
in Jesus abound.
All that I want is in Jesus.
He satisfies, joy He supplies;
Life would be worthless without Him;
All things in Jesus I find.
Some carry burdens
whose weight has for years
Crushed them with sorrow
and blinded with tears.
Yet One stands ready
to help them just now,
If they will humbly in penitence bow.
All that I want is in Jesus.
He satisfies, joy He supplies;
Life would be worthless without Him;
All things in Jesus I find.
No other name thrills
the joy chords within,
And through none else
is remission of sin.
He knows the pain
of the heart sorely tried.
Both need and want
will by Him be supplied.
All that I want is in Jesus.
He satisfies, joy He supplies;
Life would be worthless without Him;
All things in Jesus I find.
Jesus is all this poor
world needs today.
Blindly they strive, for sin
darkens their way.
O to draw back the grim
curtains of night,
One glimpse of Jesus
and all will be bright!
All that I want is in Jesus.
He satisfies, joy He supplies;
Life would be worthless without Him;
All things in Jesus I find.
