1. Fade, fade each earthly joy; Jesus is mine. Break every tender tie; Jesus is mine. Dark is the wilderness, Earth has no resting place, Jesus alone can bless; Jesus is mine. 2. Tempt not my soul away; Jesus is mine. Here would I ever stay; Jesus is mine. Perishing thing of clay, Born but for one brief day, Pass from my heart away; Jesus is mine. 3. Farewell, ye dreams of night; Jesus is mine. Lost in this dawning bright; Jesus in mine. All that my soul has tried Left but a dismal void; Jesus has satisfied; Jesus is mine. 4. Farewell, mortality; Jesus is mine. Welcome, eternity; Jesus is mine. Welcome, O Loved and Blest, Welcome, sweet scenes of rest, Welcome, my Savior's breast; Jesus is mine.
