Jesus, I my cross have taken

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #499 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow thee: All things else I have forsaken; Thou from hence my all shalt be. Perish every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known; Yet how rich is my condition, While I prove the Lord my own. 2 Let the world despise and leave me They have left my Saviour, too; Human hearts and looks deceive me Thou art faithful, thou art true. O, 'tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me; O, 'twere not in joy to charm me, If that love be hid from me. 3 Soul, then know thy full salvation; Rise o'er sin, and fear, and care; Joy to find in every station Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee; Think what Father's smiles are thine; Think that Jesus died to win thee; Child of Heaven, canst thou repine? 4 Haste thee on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee; God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission, Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days; Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

O, 'tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me; O, 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with thee. 3 Take, my soul, thy full salvation; Rise o'er sin and fear and care; Joy to find, in every station, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee, What a Father's smile is thine, What a Saviour died to win thee; Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine? 4 Haste then on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there.
