Take the world, but give me Jesus - Marjolein van Hoef

Zang: Marjolein van Hoef
Piano: Gert van Hoef
Take the world, but give me Jesus,
All its joys are but a name;
But His love abideth ever,
Through eternal years the same.
Oh, the height and depth of mercy!
Oh, the length and breadth of love!
Oh, the fullness of redemption,
Pledge of endless life above!
Take the world, but give me Jesus,
Sweetest comfort of my soul;
With my Savior watching o’er me,
I can sing though billows roll.
Refrein
Take the world, but give me Jesus,
Let me view His constant smile;
Then throughout my pilgrim journey
Light will cheer me all the while.
Refrein
Take the world, but give me Jesus.
In His cross my trust shall be,
Till, with clearer, brighter vision,
Face to face my Lord I see.
Refrein

Nimm die Welt, doch gib mir Jesus! Er ist höchste Freude mir; Seine Liebe bleibt auf ewig unverändert für und für. Refrain: Jesu Liebe ist unendlich hoch und tief und lang und breit! Und die Fülle der Erlösung reicht in alle Ewigkeit! Dankjewel Marjolein, voor dit nummer met de mooie tekst, zo'n tekst zijn er niet meer. Danke aus Deutschland.
