1 Jesus, I live to Thee,
The loveliest and best;
My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
In Thy blest love I rest.
2 Jesus, I die to Thee;
Whenever death shall come,
To die in Thee is life to me,
In my eternal home.
3 Whether to live or die,
I know not which is best;
To live in Thee is bliss to me,
To die is endless rest.
4 Living or dying, Lord,
I ask but to be Thine;
My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
Makes heaven for ever mine.
Amen.
