Lyrics

The blood-red sweat in the garden
And the broken heart on the tree,
Are enough for my suffering Sav­ior
To bear on earth for me.

Refrain

Till I meet Him in the glo­ry,
May I gladden His yearning soul
By bringing each day to Je­sus
Some wanderer from the fold.

My sins and follies that grieve Him,
As He watches me day by day,
Are enough for my patient Sav­ior
To bear along life’s way.

Refrain

The scoffs of those who despise Him,
And the sneers of those who revile,
Are enough for my loving Sav­ior
To bear for me awhile.
