  1. 1Take the world, but give me Jesus
  2. All its joys are but a name;
  3. But his love abideth ever,
  4. Through eternal years the same.
  5. O the height and depth of mercy,
  6. O the length and breadth of love.
  7. O the fullness of redemption,
  8. Pledge of endless life above.
  9. 2Take the world, but give me Jesus,
  10. Sweetest comfort of my soul;
  11. With my Savior watching o'er me
  12. I can sing, though billows roll.
  13. O the height and depth of mercy,
  14. O the length and breadth of love.
  15. O the fullness of redemption,
  16. Pledge of endless life above.
  17. 3Take the world, but give me Jesus,

  20. Light will cheer me all the while.

  22. O the length and breadth of love.
  23. O the fullness of redemption,
  24. Pledge of endless life above.
  25. 4Take the world, but give me Jesus;
  26. In his cross my trust shall be,
  27. Till, with clearer, brighter vision,
  28. Face to face my Lord I see.
  29. O the height and depth of mercy,
  30. O the length and breadth of love.
