Jesu, Grant Me This

Download a MIDI of this hymn

Jesu, grant me this, I pray:
Ever in Thy heart to stay;
Let me evermore abide,
Hidden in Thy wounded side.

2. If the evil one prepare,
Or the world, a tempting snare,
I am safe when I abide,
In Thy heart and wounded side.

3. If the flesh, with sin-stained will,
Tempt my soul to deeds of ill,
Naught I fear when I abide,
In Thy heart and wounded side.

4. Death will come one day to me;
Jesu, cast me not from Thee;
Dying, let me still abide,
In Thy heart and wounded side.
