Jesus, I live to Thee

335 Lake Enon. S. M.

1 Jesus, I live to Thee,
   The loveliest and best;
   My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
   In Thy blest love I rest.

2 Jesus, I die to Thee,
   Whenever death shall come;
   To die in Thee is life to me,
   In my eternal home.

3 Whether to live or die,
   I know not which is best;
   To live in Thee is bliss to me,
   To die is endless rest.

4 Living or dying, Lord,
   I ask but to be Thine;
   My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
   Makes heaven for ever mine.
