Fade, fade each earthly joy

1
Fade, fade each earthly joy;
  Jesus is mine.
Break every tender tie;
  Jesus is mine.
Dark is the wilderness,
Earth has no resting place,
Jesus alone can bless;
  Jesus is mine.
2
Tempt not my soul away;
  Jesus is mine.
Here would I ever stay;
  Jesus is mine.
Perishing things of clay,
Born but for one brief day,
Pass from my heart away;
  Jesus is mine.
3
Farewell, ye dreams of night;
  Jesus is mine.
Lost in this dawning bright;
  Jesus is mine.
All that my soul has tried
Left but a dismal void;
Jesus has satisfied;
  Jesus is mine.
4
Farewell, mortality;
  Jesus is mine.
Welcome, eternity;
  Jesus is mine.
Welcome, O Loved and Blest,
Welcome, sweet scenes of rest,
Welcome, my Savior’s breast;
  Jesus is mine.

Jesus alone satisfies, Him alone can bless for real. He is a place to stay... in Him we live, move and have our being. A believer in Him bids farewell to mortality and welcomes immortality ie eternal life. Nothing can be better than this...

The Message and Content of the Gospel is real, Jesus is mine.

Even as I singed it from my dreams, it Divine emotions can never be over emphasized ..

Jesus is Mine.

This has become my morning worship song. It reminds me that I'm a sojourner here on Earth. A better home is coming!

This hymn (FADE FADE EACH EARTHLY JOY) was the favorite hymn of Samuel Morris, (1872-1893), an African prince who came to America in 1891. Became to learn of the Holy Spirit. So powerful was his anointing he was called “an angel in ebony”. Taylor University in Fort Wayne, Indiana, honors him as the spiritual benefactor sent from Gos to save their school. The full splendor of his story has yet to be told. God still has treasures in darkness to lavish on His people. GLORY!
