NOTHING BETWEEN, by                    
First Line: Nothing between my soul and the saviour
Last Line: Keep that way clearl let nothing between!
Subject(s): Jesus Christ


Nothing between my soul and the Saviour,
Naught of this world's delusive dreams;
I have renounced all sinful pleasure,
Jesus is mine; there's nothing between.

Nothing between, like worldly pleasure,
Habits of life though harmless they seem
Must not my heart from Him ever sever,
He is my all; there's nothing between.

Nothing between, like pride or station,
Self or friends shall not intervene,
Though it may cost me much tribulation,
I am resolved; there's nothing between.

Nothing between, e'en many hard trials,
Though the whole world against me convene;
Watching with prayer and much self-denial,
I'll triumph at last with nothing between.

Nothing between my soul and the Saviour,
So that His blessed face may be seen;
Nothing preventing the least of His favor,
Keep that way clearl Let nothing between!
