My Jesus, I love you, I know you are mine;
My Jesus, I love you, I know you are mine;
for you all the pleasures of sin I resign:
to you, my Redeemer and Saviour, I bow-
if ever I loved you, if ever I loved you,
if ever I loved you, my Jesus, it is now.
2. My Jesus, I love you, for you first loved me
and purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree;
I love you for wearing the thorns on your brow-
if ever I loved you, if ever I loved you,
if ever I loved you, my Jesus, it is now.
3. I’ll love you in life, I will love you in death,
and praise you as long as you lend me my breath,
and say, with death’s hand lying cold on my brow-
‘If ever I loved you, if ever I loved you,
if ever I loved you, my Jesus, it is now.’
4. Through visions of glory and endless delight,
in heaven adoring, I’ll live in your light;
I’ll sing to your praise and with joy I’ll avow-
‘If ever I loved you, if ever I loved you,
if ever I loved you, my Jesus, it is now.’
