9175. Make Jesus Glad

1 The blood-red sweat in the garden
And the broken heart on the tree,
Are enough for my suffering Savior
To bear on earth for me.

Refrain:
Till I meet Him in the glory,
May I gladden His yearning soul
By bringing each day to Jesus
Some wanderer from the fold.

2 My sins and follies that grieve Him,
As He watches me day by day,
Are enough for my patient Savior
To bear along life’s way. [Refrain]

3 The scoffs of those who despise Him,
And the sneers of those who revile,
Are enough for my loving Savior
To bear for me awhile. [Refrain]
