Jesus Only, When the Morning

lyricist: Elias Nason, 1856
Composer: Howard Doane, 1883

Jesus on­ly

when the morn­ing

Beams up­on the path I tread;

Jesus on­ly

when the dark­ness

Gathers round my wea­ry head.

Jesus on­ly

when the bil­lows

Cold and sul­len o’er me roll;

Jesus on­ly

when the trum­pet

Rends the tomb and wakes the soul.

Jesus on­ly

when

ador­ing

Saints their crowns be­fore Him bring;

Jesus on­ly

I will

joy­ous

Through eter­nal ag­es sing.
