1.
O Jesus, my Saviour, I know Thou art mine,
For thee all the pleasures of sin I resign.
Of objects most pleasing I love Thee the best,
Without thee I’m wretched, but with thee I'm blessed.
2.
The Spirit first taught me to know I was blind,
Then taught me the way of salvation to find;
And when I was sinking in dreadful despair,
Thy mercy relieved me and bid me not fear.
3.
In vain I attempt to describe what I feel,
The language of mortals or angels would fail;
My Jesus is precious, my soul's in a flame,
I'm raised to a rapture while praising his name.
