I need, Thee blessed Jesus
"I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: father, I have sinned against heaven and against you". Luke 15:18
I need, Thee blessed Jesus,
Because I'm sinful thus,
I do not bring anything,
Nothing to Thee I bring.
I need Thee, come and wash me
Be holy, pure as thine,
'Tis only thou art able,
I give myself to Thee.
I need Thee, blessed Jesus,
Because I'm wholly poor;
I have nothing here with me,
And also very sick. sno
I need Thy love, O Jesus
To fill my heart with fond oi
To make me remember Thee o
Until I reach the end.
I need Thee, blessed Jesus,
I need Thy mutual love
Who will thy kindness show me
As I travell to Thee.
I need Thy heart, O Jesus,
Perceives what I confront,
I need Thee to share with me
In whate'er things may be.
I need Thee, blessed Jesus,
I hope and trust. O Lord
That I shall soon behold Thee
In Thy mansion above;
There, with thy dearest lov'd ones
I'Il very much rejoice;
And sing Thee, blessed Jesus,
In love forever- more.
