1809. Give Your Heart to Jesus

1. Give your heart to Jesus, soul with care oppressed,
He will lift your burden, He will give you rest.
Tell Him all your sorrow, let Him know your grief;
He will be your helper, He will give relief.

2. Give your heart to Jesus, souls that are at rest,
Tasting shallow pleasures, that can never last.
Shun the world’s allurements; leave the ways of sin;
Heed the Guest that’s knocking, let the Master in.

3. Give your heart to Jesus, lay it at His feet;
’Tis the only offering for the Master meet.
Let Him be your Savior, be your all in all;
He will guard and keep you, you can never fall.
