All my being's ransom'd pow'rs; All my thoughts and words and doings, All my days and all my hours. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All my days and all my hours. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All my days and all my hours. 2. Let my hands perform his bidding; Let my feet run in his ways; Let my eyes see Jesus only; Let my lips speak forth his praise. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Let my lips speak forth his praise. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Let my lips speak forth his praise. 3. Worldlings prize their gems of beauty, Cling to gilded toys of dust, Boast of wealth, and fame, and pleasure; Only Jesus will I trust. Only Jesus! only Jesus! Only Jesus will I trust. Only Jesus! only Jesus! Only Jesus will I trust. 4. Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, I've lost sight of all beside,— So enchained my spirit's vision, Looking at the crucified. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All for Jesus, crucified! All for Jesus! all for Jesus! All for Jesus, crucified! 5. Oh, what wonder! how amazing! Jesus, glorious King of kings, Deigns to call me his beloved, Lets me rest beneath his wings. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Resting now beneath his wings. All for Jesus! all for Jesus! Resting now beneath his wings. Used With Tune: [All for Jesus! all for Jesus!]
