Jesus, to thee I now can fly,

by Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 233 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Jesus, to thee I now can fly, On whom my help is laid; Oppressed by sins, I lift my eye, And see the shadows fade.

Verse 2

Believing on my Lord, I find A sure and present aid; On thee alone my constant mind Be every moment stayed.

Verse 3

Whate'er in me seems wise, or good, Or strong, I here disclaim; I wash my garments in the blood Of the atoning Lamb.

Verse 4

Jesus, my Strength, my Life, my Rest, On thee will I depend, Till summoned to the marriage-feast, When faith in sight shall end.
