Give Me Jesus Alone (#229) | Daniel O. Teasley, 1911

I am here a pilgrim stranger, Give me Jesus alone; He will guard my soul from danger, Give me Jesus alone. Refrain 1: Give me Jesus alone, Give me Jesus alone; Till I reach my home in glory Give me Jesus alone. When the pow’rs of sin beset me, Give me Jesus alone; When my friends on earth forget me, Give me Jesus alone. Refrain 2: Give me Jesus alone, Give me Jesus alone; Every hour and every moment, Give me Jesus alone. Though the world its praise should offer, Give me Jesus alone; With my Lord I’ll meekly suffer, Give me Jesus alone. Refrain 3: Give me Jesus alone, Give me Jesus alone; Let the world deride or flatter, Give me Jesus alone. When my heart for joy is singing, Give me Jesus alone; Or when pain my heart is wringing, Give me Jesus alone. Refrain 4: Give me Jesus alone, Give me Jesus alone; In the sunshine or the shadow, Give me Jesus alone. Passing through life’s verdant meadow, Give me Jesus alone; Or through death’s dark gloomy shadow, Give me Jesus alone. Refrain 5: Give me Jesus alone, Give me Jesus alone; Whether life or death await me, Give me Jesus alone.
