| Text: | Clinging to Jesus, Alone |
| Author: | G. M. Bills |
| Tune: | [Clinging to Jesus alone is sweet] |
| Composer: | M. L. McPhail |
1 Clinging to Jesus alone is sweet;
Jesus alone! Jesus alone!
Wisdom I learn at the Master’s feet,
Clinging to Jesus alone.
Refrain:
Glory and honor, and love untold,
Ever shall be my won;
When I am walking the streets of gold,
Clinging to Jesus alone.
2 Worldly alliances I resign,
Jesus alone! Jesus alone!
Pleasures of folly cannot be mine;
Clinging to Jesus alone. [Refrain]
3 Following Jesus I know is best;
Jesus alone! Jesus alone!
Toiling assureth eternal rest,
Clinging to Jesus alone. [Refrain]
4 Humbly I keep in the path He trod;
Jesus alone! Jesus alone!
Walking with Jesus I walk with God,
Clinging to Jesus alone. [Refrain]
5 Life will be sweeter by far than now,
Jesus alone! Jesus alone!
When immortality crowns my brow;
Clinging to Jesus alone. [Refrain]
