With all of creature good!
Only Jesus I pursue,
Who bought me with His blood:
All thy pleasures I forego;
I trample on thy wealth and pride;
Only Jesus will I know,
And Jesus, crucified.
2 Other knowledge I disdain;
'Tis all but vanity:
Christ, the Lamb of God, was slain,--
He tasted death for me.
Me to save from endless woe
The sin-atoning Victim died:
Only Jesus will I know,
And Jesus, crucified.
3 Him to know is life and peace,
And pleasure without end;
This is all my happiness,
On Jesus to depend;
Daily in His grace to grow,
And ever in His faith abide;
Only Jesus will I know,
And Jesus, crucified.
Vain, delusive world, adieu

Hung on the cursed tree,
And groaned away a dying life
For thee, my soul! for thee.

Those sins that pierced and nailed his flesh
Fast to the fatal wood!

My heart has so decreed;
Nor will I spare the guilty things
That made my Saviour bleed.

My murdered Lord I view,
I'll raise revenge against my sins,
And slay the murderers too. Used With Tune: COMMUNION

Lo, Salem's daughters weep around,
A solemn darkness veils the skies;
A sudden trembling shakes the ground.
2 Here's love and grief beyond degree;
The Lord of glory dies for man:
But lo, what sudden joys I see,
Jesus, the dead, revives again!
3 The rising God forsakes the tomb;
The tomb in vain forbids His rise;
Cherubic legions guard Him home,
And shout Him welcome to the skies.
4 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell
How high your great Deliverer reigns;
Sing how He spoiled the hosts of hell,
And led the monster death in chains.
5 Say, "Live for ever, wondrous King!
Born to redeem, and strong to save,"
Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting?"
And, "Where's thy victory, boasting grave?"

While at thy cross I kneel,
Gaze on thy wounded, fainting head,
And all thy sorrows feel.

This heart so hard before;
I hear thee for the guilty plead,
And grief o'erflows the more.
3 I know this cleansing blood of thine
Was shed, dear for me:
For me, for all,--oh, grace divine!--
Who look by faith on thee.
4 O Christ of God, O spotless Lamb,
By love my soul is drawn;
Henceforth, for ever, thine I am;
Here life and peace are born.

Thine arm shall be my stay;
And thou, enthroned, my soul shalt spare,
On thy great judgment-day.
