  1. Loved with everlasting love,
    Led by grace that love to know;
    Gracious Spirit from above,
    Thou hast taught me it is so!
    Oh, this full and perfect peace!
    Oh, this transport all divine!
    In a love which cannot cease,
    I am His, and He is mine;
    In a love which cannot cease,
    I am His, and He is mine.
  2. Heav’n above is softer blue,
    Earth around is sweeter green;
    Something lives in every hue
    Christless eyes have never seen;
    Birds with gladder songs o’erflow,
    Flow’rs with deeper beauties shine,
    Since I know, as now I know,
    I am His, and He is mine;
    Since I know, as now I know,
    I am His, and He is mine.
  3. Things that once were wild alarms
    Cannot now disturb my rest,
    Closed in everlasting arms,
    Pillowed on His loving breast;
    Oh, to lie forever here,
    Doubt and care and self resign,
    While He whispers in my ear
    I am His, and He is mine;
    While He whispers in my ear
    I am His, and He is mine.
  4. His forever, only His;
    Who the Lord and me shall part?
    Ah, with what a rest of bliss
    Christ can fill the loving heart!
    Heav’n and earth may fade and flee,
    Firstborn light in gloom decline,
    But while God and I shall be,
    I am His, and He is mine;
    But while God and I shall be,
    I am His, and He is mine.
