In the heart of Jesus

by Alice Pugh

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 577.

Verse 1

In the heart of Jesus There is love for you, Love most pure and tender, Love most deep and true; Why should you be lonely, Why for friendship sigh, When the heart of Jesus Has a full supply?

Verse 2

In the mind of Jesus There is thought for you, Warm as summer sunshine, Sweet as morning dew; Why should you be fearful, Why take anxious thought, Since the mind of Jesus Cares for those He bought?

Verse 3

In the field of Jesus There is work for you; Such as even angels Might rejoice to do; Why stand idly sighing For some lifework grand, While the field of Jesus Seeks your reaping hand?

Verse 4

In the home of Jesus There’s a place for you; Glorious, bright, and joyous, Calm and peaceful too; Why then, like a wanderer, Roam with weary pace, If the home of Jesus Holds for you a place?
