Thou treasure inexhaustable
Thou source of true delight!
What care I for the world's applause
Or for it's diamonds bright?
More prized by far one smile from Thee
Than all the Earth holds dear;
I want for nothing man can give
For I have Jesus here.
Yes Yes, this loved One is my own;
Could I any richer be?
When all He has and all He is,
All, all belong to me!
For He is bread that can sustain,
And living wine to cheer,
And there's a heart that beats for me,
For I have Jesus here.
Tis sweet to linger by His side,
To listen to His voice;
For O He speaks in melting tones,
Which make my heart rejoice.
And when His Name, His own dear Name,
Resounds upon my ear
I can but weep for very joy,
For I have Jesus here!
And often now I love to sit
And watch for His return!
For though in Spirit He is here,
I still His absence mourne.
But soon shall dawn that brighter day,
Soon soon He will appear;
And, Oh! I must be with Him then,
For I have Jesus here.
