Hymns of Dawn

112.  All With Jesus

1
I left it all with Jesus
Long ago;
All my sins and weakness,
And my woe.
Human sins once slew him
On the tree.
I heard the spirit’s whisper,
‘Tis for thee;
From my heart the burden Rolled away-
Happy day!
From my heart the burden Rolled away-
Happy day!

2
I leave it all with Jesus
For he knows
How to steal the bitter,
From life’s woes
How to gild the teardrop
With his smile,
Make the desert-garden
Bloom awhile;
When my weakness leaneth On his might,
All seems light.
When my weakness leaneth On his might,
All seems light.

3
I leave it all with Jesus
Day by day;
Faith can firmly trust him,
Come what may,
Hope has dropped her anchor,
Found her rest
In the calm sure haven
Of his breast:
Love esteems it heaven To abide
At his side.
Love esteems it heaven To abide
At his side.
