	1. Jesus, I live to Thee,
	The Loveliest and Best;
	My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
	In Thy blest love I rest.
	
	2. Jesus, I die to Thee
	Whenever death shall come;
	To die in Thee is life to me
	In my eternal home.
	
	3. Whether to live or die
	I know not which is best:
	To live in Thee is bliss to me,
	To die is endless rest.
	
	4. Living or dying, Lord,
	I ask but to be Thine;
	My life in Thee, Thy life in me,
	Make heaven forever mine.
