歌词
Jesus I my cross have taken
All to leave and follow Thee
Destitute despised forsaken
Thou from hence my all shall be
Perish every fond ambition
All I've sought or hoped or known
Yet how rich is my condition
God and heaven are still my own
Let the world despise and leave me
They have left my Saviour too
Human hearts and looks deceive me
Thou are not, like man, untrue
And while thou shall smile upon me
God of wisdom love and might
Foes may hate and friends may shun me
Show Thy face and all is bright
Take my soul thy full salvation
Rise o'er sin and fear and care
Joy to find in every station
Something still to do or bear
Think what Spirit dwells within thee
What a Father's smile is thine
What a Saviour died to win thee
Child of heaven should thou repine?
Hasten on from grace to glory
Armed by faith and winged by prayer
Heaven's eternal days before thee
God's own hand shall guide thee there
Soon shall close thy earthly mission
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days
Hope soon change to glad fruition
Faith to sight and prayer to praise
