1
Take the world, but give me Jesus, All its joys are but a name; But His love abideth ever, Through eternal years the same.
2
Take the world, but give me Jesus, Sweetest comfort of my soul; With my Savior watching o'er me, I can sing, though billows roll.
3
Take the world, but give me Jesus; Let me view His constant smile; Then through out my pilgrim journey Light will cheer me all the while.
4
Take the world, but give me Jesus; In His cross my trust shall be, Till, with clearer, brighter vision, Face to face my Lord I see.
C

Chorus

Oh, the height and depth of mercy! Oh, the length and breadth of love! Oh, the fullness of redemption, Pledge of endless life above.
