Lyrics

To His dear voice I listened,
And to my Lord I came;
He filled my heart with music,
Glad praises to His name.

Refrain

His grace and lov­ing­kind­ness,
My song shall ever be;
For I belong to Je­sus,
And He belongs to me;
For I belong to Je­sus,
And He belongs to me.

My Sav­ior’s yoke is easy,
And His commands are sweet;
My joy it is to follow
The prints of His dear feet.

Refrain

And when my heart is troubled,
I come to Him for rest;
He speaketh words of comfort,
While leaning on His breast.

Refrain

When I shall reach the homeland,
My Sav­ior I shall see;
For I belong to Je­sus,
And He belongs to me.
