Jesus, Blessèd Jesus (Gabriel)

Composer: Charles Gabriel, 1906

There’s One who can com­fort when all else fails

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus;

A Sav­ior who saves tho’ the foe as­sails

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus:

Once He tra­veled the way we go

Felt the pangs of de­ceit and woe;

Who more per­fect­ly then can know

Than Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus?

He hear­eth the cry of the soul dis­tressed

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus;

He heal­eth the wound­ed

He giv­eth rest

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus:

When from loved ones we’re called to part

When the tears in our ang­uish start

None can com­fort the break­ing heart

Like Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus.

He nev­er for­sakes in the dark­est hour

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus;

His arm is around us with keep­ing pow­er

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus:

When we en­ter the sha­dow land

When at Jor­dan we tremb­ling stand

He will meet us with out­stretched hand

This Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus.

What joy it will be when we see His face

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus;

Forever to sing of His love and grace

Jesus

bless­èd Je­sus:

There at home on that shin­ing shore

With the loved ones gone on be­fore

We will praise Him for­ev­er­more

Our Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus.
