Jesus, O my King and Savior

Jesus, O my King and Savior

Representative Text

Jesus, O my King and Saviour,
Write Thy name within my heart,
So that world and sin may never
Blot it out with hellish art.
This inscription let it be:
Jesus Christ, on Calvary
Crucified, my adoration
E'er shall be and my salvation.
