SA 18:1{I will love Thee, Lord Jesus, because Thou hast loved me, and because Thou art loving me now, and wilt love me to the end. How could I have helped loving Thee, when Thou west waiting all the time for me, waiting patiently while I did not care about Thee! Oh, forgive me, and now I will love Thee always; for Thou wilt take my love, and fix it on Thyself, and keep it for Thyself. I will love Thee, O Lord Jesus; I will not listen to Satan, who tries to keep me from loving Thee; I will not ask myself anything about it, lest I should begin to get puzzled about whether I do love Thee or not. Thou knowest that I do want to love Thee; and now, blessed Lord Jesus, hear me say that I will love Thee, and that I will trust Thee to make me love Thee more and more, always more and more. Thou hast heard me say it. And I am so glad I have said it. I do not want ever to take it back, and Thou wilt not let me take it back. Fill me so full of Thy love that it may run over into everything I do, and that I may love everybody, because I love Thee. Yes, I will love Thee, blest Lord Jesus!
Jesus, Master, whose I am, purchased Thine alone to be,
By Thy blood, O spotless Lamb, shed so willingly for me;
Let my heart be all Thine own, let me live to Thee alone.
