My song shall be of Jesus; His mercy crowns my days,
He fills my cup with blessings, and tunes my heart to praise:
My song shall be of Jesus, the precious Lamb of God
Who gave Himself my ransom, And bought me with His blood.
2 My song shall be of Jesus; when sitting at His feet,
I call to mind His goodness, in meditation sweet:
My song shall be of Jesus; whatever ill betide;
I’ll sing the grace that saves me, and keeps me at His side.
3 My song shall be of Jesus; while pressing on my way
To reach the blissful region, of pure and perfect day;
And when my soul shall enter, the gate of Eden fair,
A song of praise to Jesus, I’ll sing for ever there.
