Sheet music
- 1There’s nothing so precious as Jesus to me;Let earth with its treasures be gone;I’m rich as can be when my Savior I see;I’m happy in Jesus alone.I’m happy with Jesus alone, (alone,)I’m happy with Jesus alone; (alone;)Tho’ poor and deserted, thank God, I can say,“I’m happy with Jesus alone."
- 2When sinful and doomed to a life of despair,No light on my pathway to shine,‘Twas Jesus who found me and made me an heirTo mansions of glory divine.I’m happy with Jesus alone, (alone,)I’m happy with Jesus alone; (alone;)Tho’ poor and deserted, thank God, I can say,“I’m happy with Jesus alone."
- 3When nothing but death for my ransom could pay,And make me accepted with God,‘Twas Jesus who freely Himself made a preyAnd ransomed my soul with His blood.I’m happy with Jesus alone, (alone,)I’m happy with Jesus alone; (alone;)Tho’ poor and deserted, thank God, I can say,“I’m happy with Jesus alone."
