All for Jesus!

Author: Mary D. James Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 247 hymnals First Line: All for Jesus! All for Jesus! Lyrics: 1 All for Jesus! All for Jesus! All my being’s ransomed pow'rs: all my thoughts and words and doings, 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. 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. 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. 5 O what wonder! how amazing! Jesus, glorious King of kings, deigns to call me his beloved, lets me rest beneath His wings.

Shirley Meter: 8.7 Appears in 823 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross I spend; Life and health and peace possessing Through the sinner's dying friend. 2 Here I kneel in wonder, viewing Mercy poured in streams of blood; Precious drops, for pardon suing, Make and plead my place with God. 3 Truly blessèd is the station, Low before His cross to lie, While I see divine compassion Pleading in His dying eye. 4 Here I find my hope of heaven, While upon the Lamb I gaze; Loving much, and much forgiven, Let my heart o'erflow with praise. 5 Lord, in loving contemplation Fix my heart and eyes on Thee, Till I taste Thy full salvation, And Thine unveiled glories see. 6 For Thy sorrows I adore Thee, For the griefs that wrought our peace; Gracious Savior, I implore Thee, In my heart Thy love increase. Amen. Used With Tune: [Sweet the moments rich in blessing]
