Oh, 'tis sweet to live for Jesus,
Counting all things else but dross,
Leaving all the world's allurements
For the glory of the cross.
All for Jesus, ''Jesus only,"
This my watchword still shall be;
Life and talent, time and treasure,
All for him who died for me.
Oh. 'tis sweet to work for Jesus,
In his vineyard to be found,
Or among the harvest toilers,
Where the golden sheaves abound.
All for Jesus, ''Jesus only,"
This my watchword still shall be;
Life and talent, time and treasure,
All for him who died for me.
Oh, 'tis sweet to talk with Jesus,
In communion close and dear,
Where the voice of ''Jesus only"
Charms my spirit's listening ear.
All for Jesus, ''Jesus only,"
This my watchword still shall be;
Life and talent, time and treasure,
All for him who died for me.
Oh, 'tis sweet to follow Jesus,
Though I may not know the way,
I can trust his hand to guide me
Home to realms of endless day.
All for Jesus, ''Jesus only,"
This my watchword still shall be;
Life and talent, time and treasure,
All for him who died for me.
Jesus! Jesus! Prince and Saviour!
More than life I find in thee;
Though all else be lost forever,
Where thou art is heaven to me.
All for Jesus, ''Jesus only,"
This my watchword still shall be;
Life and talent, time and treasure,
All for him who died for me.
