RCCG Hymn 388
My Jesus, I Love Thee, I Know Thou Art Mine
"Whom having not seen, ye love." - 1 Pet 1:8
My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine, For Thee all the follies of sin I resign; My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art Thou; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
Chorus
There's a better day, there's a crowning day, There's a better day coming on, There's a better day, there's a crowning day, There's a better day coming on, Coming on, coming on, There's a better day, there's a crowning day, There's a better day coming on.
I love Thee, because Thou hast first loved me, And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree; I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow, If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
In mansions of glory and endless delight, I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow, If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
