I lay my sins on Jesus,
\nthe spotless Lamb of God;
\nHe bears them all, and frees us
\nfrom the accursed load;
\nI bring my guilt to Jesus,
\nto wash my crimson stains
\nwhite in His blood most precious,
\ntill not a spot remains.<\/p>\n

I lay my wants on Jesus;
\nall fullness dwells in Him;
\nHe heals all my diseases,
\nHe doth my soul redeem;
\nI lay my griefs on Jesus,
\nmy burdens and my cares;
\nHe from them all releases,
\nHe all my sorrow shares.<\/p>\n

I rest my soul on Jesus,
\nthis weary soul of mine;
\nHis right hand me embraces,
\nI on His breast recline.
\nI love the Name of Jesus,
\nImmanuel, Christ, the Lord;
\nlike fragrance on the breezes
\nHis Name abroad is poured.<\/p>\n

I long to be like Jesus,
\nmeek, loving, lowly, mild;
\nI long to be like Jesus,
\nthe Father’s holy Child;
\nI long to be with Jesus
\namid the heav’nly throng,
\nto sing with saints His praises,
\nto learn the angels’ song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
