Now, in a song of grateful praise,
To my dear Lord my voice I’ll raise;
With all His saints I’ll join to tell—
My Jesus has done all things well.
Refrain
Dear Jesus is the One I love,
Oh, bless His Name! He died for me;
His blood now cleanses me from sin,
Dear Jesus now He sets me free.
All worlds His glorious power confess,
His wisdom all His works express;
But oh! His love what tongue can tell?
My Jesus has done all things well.
Refrain
How sovereign, powerful and free
Has been His love to sinful me!
He plucked me from the jaws of hell—
My Jesus has done all things well.
