1. Something every heart is loving:
  If not Jesus, none can rest;
  Lord, my heart to Thee is given;
  Take it, for it loves Thee best.
2. Thus I cast the world behind me;
  Jesus most beloved shall be;
  Beauteous more than all things beauteous,
  He alone is joy to me.
3. Bright with all eternal radiance
  Is the glory of Thy face;
  Thou art loving, sweet, and tender,
  Full of pity, full of grace.
4. When I hated, Thou didst love me,
  Shedd'st for me Thy precious blood;
  Still Thou lovest, lovest ever,
  Shall I not love Thee, my God?
5. Keep my heart still faithful to Thee,
  That my earthly life may be
  But a shadow to that glory
  Of my hidden life in Thee.
