1.Jesus, Thou hadst chosen

While on earth ever to be with Thee

People who’d their all forsaken

And resolved to follow Thee.

             CHORUS

Jesus, I love Thee dearly

Sweet indeed Thou art to me

O, its great how lovingly Thou hast called me

Sweet it is to be with Thee

2.Though of men rejected

Thou wert made as the headstone in Zion

And the saints with Thee are joined

In their life with Thee made one.

3.Thou art King in Zion

In Thy house holiness reigns supreme

Till we join with Thee on Zion

Holiness shall be our theme.

4.Jesus, Thou art Zion

Bound with Thee by Thy love, still we’re free!

No one captive sings of Zion

We shall sing yet e’er of Thee.

5.Hid in God Almighty,

Christ, with Thee, we shall live seen as Zion

We shall soon be clothed in glory

And appear with Thee to reign.
