1
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
Thou hast won each love from me;
Who like Thee—so fair and comely?
Who like Thee—so sweet and lovely?
Matchless One, unrivaled beauty,
None can e’er compete with Thee!
2
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
Gladly will I hear Thy call;
Since Thy voice my heart hath entered,
I from all things could but sever;
Void are all my other seekings,
Every pride hath disappeared.
3
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
How can I still stubborn be?
At Thy feet cast all my hard’nings,
And return with songs and singings;
’Tis my love to be Thy bondslave,
’Tis my joy to Thee obey.
4
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
Thy way only will I choose;
Though in tears while I’m obeying,
Yet I would not change my standing;
All I long for is Thy pleasure,
And the peace Thy love would bring.
5
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
When Thy presence does depart,
Seems the dawn has lost its traces,
Hidden are my smiling faces;
All I yearn for is Thy coming
And Thy presence’ sweet embrace.
6
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
Can I tell it all to Thee?
Thou my love and satisfaction,
Thou my everlasting portion;
Thou art all that I desire,
Nothing else I would pursue.
7
Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus,
All I have I give to Thee;
Who like Thee—so fair and comely?
Who like Thee—so sweet and lovely?
Matchless One, unrivaled beauty,
None can e’er compete with Thee!
