Because I Love Jesus

My path may be lone­ly

And dark be the night

The clouds may be hid­ing

The sun from my sight

Yet I have as­sur­ance

That all will be right

Because I love Je­sus.

Because I love Je­sus

Je­sus

Because I love Je­sus;

My soul is at rest

And in Him I am blest;

Because I love Je­sus.

Because I love Je­sus

My Sav­ior and thine

There’s peace in my soul

There is com­fort di­vine;

’Till al­ways ab­ide

For the pro­mise is mine

Because I love Je­sus.

Though loved ones be taken

Away from my side

Though rich­es and hon­or

To me be de­nied

Yet if I but trust Him

No ill can be­tide

Because I love Je­sus.

Though all that is ev­il

Against me com­bine

Though Sa­tan around me

His snares should en­twine

Yet if I am faith­ful

A crown will be mine

Because I love Je­sus.
