Vain, Delusive World, Adieu,
With All Of Creature Good;
Only Jesus I Pursue,
Who Bought Me With His Blood;
All Thy Pleasures I Forego;
I Trample On Thy Wealth And Pride;
Only Jesus Will I Know,
And Jesus Crucified.
Other Knowledge I Disdain,
‘Tis All But Vanity;
Christ, The Lamb Of God, Was Slain,
He Tasted Death For Me:
Me To Save From Endless Woe
The Sin Atoning Victim Died;
Only Jesus Will I Know,
And Jesus Crucified.
Here Will I Set Up My Rest;
My Fluctuating Heart
From The Haven Of His Breast
Shall Nevermore Depart;
Whither Should A Sinner Go?
His Wounds For Me Stand Open Wide;
Only Jesus Will I Know,
And Jesus Crucified.
Him To Know Is Life And Peace,
And Pleasure Without End;
This Is All My Happiness,
On Jesus To Depend;
Daily In His Grace To Grow,
And Ever In His Faith Abide;
Only Jesus Will I Know,
And Jesus Crucified.
O That I Could All Invite,
This Saving Truth To Prove;
Show The Length, The Breadth, The Height,
And Depth Of Jesus’ Love!
Fain I Would To Sinners Show
The Blood By Faith Alone Applied;
Only Jesus Will I Know,
And Jesus Crucified.
