Verse 1
All for Jesus, all for Jesus!
All my being’s ransomed powers: (I Cor. 6:19-20)
All my thoughts and words and doings, (Rom. 12:1-2, Col. 3:17)
All my days and all my hours.
Chorus
All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
All my days and all my hours;
All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
All my days and all my hours.
Verse 2
Let my hands perform His bidding,
Let my feet run in His ways; (Ps. 119:32)
Let my eyes see Jesus only, (Heb. 12:2)
Let my lips speak forth His praise. (Ps. 34:1, Ps. 71:8)
Verse 3
Worldlings prize their gems of beauty,
Cling to gilded toys of dust,
Boast of wealth and fame and pleasure; (I John 2:15-17)
Only Jesus will I trust. (Prov. 3:5)
Verse 4
Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, (Heb. 12:2)
I’ve lost sight of all beside;
So enchained my spirit’s vision,
Looking at the Crucified.
Verse 5
Oh, what wonder! how amazing!
Jesus, glorious King of kings, (I Tim. 6:15, Rev. 17:14, Rev. 19:16)
Deigns to call me His belovèd, (Rom. 9:25, Song of Solomon 2:16, Song of Solomon 6:3)
Lets me rest beneath His wings. (Ps. 17:8, Ps. 36:7, Ps. 57:1, Ps. 61:4, Ps. 63:7, Ps. 91:4, Matt. 23:37, Luke 13:34)
