Gladly would I leave behind me
All the pleasure I have known
To pursue surpa**ing treasures
At the throne of God the Son
Worthy of unending worship
Love and loveliness is He
By His precious d**h were millions
From the jaws of d**h set free
Gladly would I give to Jesus
All affection, everything
For the washing of His mercy
Makes my ransomed heart to sing
"Holy, holy!" is the Rising up from those who see
Christ exalted, bright and burning
Full of pow'r and purity
Where else can I go?
Jesus, You're the One
That I was made to know
What else can I do?
Jesus, You're my all
I gladly run to You
Gladly would I flee temptations
For their troubles fill my life
Turn and seek my God and Savior
For His goodness satisfies
Earthly treasures, all are pa**ing
Thieves break in and rust destroys
But in God are awesome splendor
Love, and everlasting joys
