Memories of Jesus

By Irving P. Emerick

Of thoughts ye are the sweetest, Fond mem'ries of my Lord; In all my mind and feelings I give thee full accord.
Nor shall my recollections Forget the gracious love That brought thee to my rescue, That bought me with thy blood;
Nor all thy many sorrows, Thy deep, atoning pain, The cross by which thou'st entered My heart fore'er to reign.
For all thy gracious mercies, With freedom from my maze Of sin and jumbled nature, I give thee hearty praise.
And treasured in my mem'ry, For earth and heaven above, I'll faithfully be keeping The tokens of thy love.
O, grant me, then, the power To give thee all my love; To serve thee without ceasing, Till brought to thee above!
—Irving P. Emerick.
