We have been doing this at ethos the last couple of weeks and I wanted to share this with you. Hope you enjoy it! There is so much truth in these lyrics. The version here is by Ascend the Hill.
- Take the world, but give me Jesus,
All its joys are but a name;
But His love abideth ever,
Through eternal years the same.
- Oh, the height and depth of mercy!
Oh, the length and breadth of love!
Oh, the fullness of redemption,
Pledge of endless life above!
- 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.
- Take the world, but give me Jesus,
Let me view His constant smile;
Then throughout my pilgrim journey
Light will cheer me all the while.
- 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.
