Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art,

           F      G7            C C7
Thou hast fully captured my heart;

          F                    Em          Am
There is none in heav'n nor on earth like Thee,

With Thy beauty none can compete.

When Thy voice first came to my ear,

            F      G7               C C7
Whisp'ring in my heart chords most dear,

           F                         Em      Am
All past loves and aims lost their charm for me,

All my boasts so vain now appear.

            C                      G
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee?

        Am                    Em
Who so full of worth, who so fair and sweet

Only Thou art worthy my love to win,

O Lord Jesus, how I love Thee!

No more in the self's world indulged to be,

Self forsake, that like Thee I’d be.

When I live, be it Thou, I pray,

Not self’s will, but God’s I’d obey;

           F                  Em         Am
To Thine heart attuned, Thy delight I’d seek;

         Dm          F          G
No more struggling, fully at peace.

            C                      G
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee?
