Jesus alone: -- if thus it were to me;
Yet thus it cannot be;
Lord, I have all things if I have but Thee.

Jesus and all: -- precious His bounties are,
Yet He more precious far;
Day's-eyes are many, one the Morning Star.

Jesus my all: -- so let me rest in love,
Thy peaceable poor dove,
Some time below till timeless time above.
