Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.870

First Line: I lay my sins on Jesus,

I lay my sins on Jesus,
The spotless Lamb of God ;
He bears them all, and frees us
From the accurs6d load.
I bring my guilt to Jesus.
To wash my crimson stains,
White in His blood most precious,
Till not a spot remains.

2 I lay my wants on Jesus,
All fulness dwells in Him ;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem.
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares :
He from them all releases ;
He all my sorrow shares.

3 I rest my soul on Jesus,
This weary soul of mine ;
His right hand me embraces,
I on His breast recline.
I love the name of Jesus,
Immanuel, Christ, the Lord :
Like fragrance on the breezes,
His name abroad is poured.

4 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy child.
I long to be with Jesus
Amid the heavenly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song.
