Fade, fade, each earthly joy, Jesus is mine.

Break every worldly tie, Jesus is mine.

Dark is the wilderness,

Earth has no resting place,

Jesus alone can bless, Jesus is mine.

Tempt not my soul away; Jesus is mine.

On earth I’ll never stay, Jesus is mine.

Perishing things of clay,

Born but for one brief day,

Pass from my heart away, Jesus is mine.

Farewell, ye dreams of night, Jesus is mine.

Lost in His dawning bright, Jesus is mine.

All that in life I’ve tried,

Left but a dismal void.

Jesus has satisfied, Jesus is mine.

Farewell, mortality, Jesus is mine.

Welcome, eternity, Jesus is mine.

Welcome, O loved and blest

Welcome, sweet scenes of rest,

Welcome, my Savior’s breast, Jesus is mine.

Fade, fade all vanity, Jesus is mine.

Gone for eternity, Jesus is mine.

Away from strife and sin

When I shall enter in

Heav’n where true joys begin, Jesus is mine.
