Hymn 583 FADE, FADE, EACH Lyrics

1. Fade, fade each earthly joy,
Jesus is mine, Break every tender tie;
Jesus is mine, Dark is the wilderness,
Earth has no resting place,
Jesus alone can bless; Jesus is mine.

2. Tempt not my soul away Jesus is mine
Here would I ever stay: Jesus is mine,
Perishing things of clay,
Born but for one brief day,
Pass from my heart away: Jesus is mine.

3. Farewell, ye dreams of night: Jesus is mine,
Lost in this dawning bright, Jesus is mine.
All that my soul has tried Left but a dismal void;
Jesus has satisfied, Jesus is mine

4. Farewell, mortality; Jesus is mine
Welcome, eternity: Jesus is mine
Welcome, O loved and blest,
Welcome, sweet scenes of rest,
Welcome, my Saviour’s breast; Jesus is mine.
