1:

Jesus, I my cross have taken,

All to leave and follow Thee,

Destitute, despised, forsaken,

Thou from hence my all shalt be.

Perish ev’ry fond ambition,

All I’ve sought, or hoped, and known;

Yet how rich is my condition!

God and heav’n are still my own.

2:

Take, my soul, Thy full salvation;

Rise o’er sin, and fear, and care:

Joy, to find in every station

Something still to do or bear;

Think what Spirit dwells within thee;

What a Father’s smile is thine;

What thy Saviour died to win thee;

Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine?

3:

Man may trouble and distress me;

‘Twill but drive me to Thy breast;

Life with trials hard may press me;

Heaven will bring me sweeter rest;

Oh ’tis not in grief to harm me,

While Thy love is left to me,

Oh, ’twere not in joy to charm me

Were that joy unmixed with Thee

4:

Haste then on from grace to glory,

Arm’d by faith, and wing’d by prayer;

Heaven’s eternal day’s before thee;

God’s own hand shall guide thee there.

Soon shall close thy earthly mission;

Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;

Hope shall change to glad fruition,

Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

Thank You Jesus,

Salvation Prayer

If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
